SONA - Seeing Sound

In the organizer's words:

Imagine entering a world without light, where only sounds shape your reality. Equipped with motion detection, headphones, a microphone and sensory shoes, SONA - Seeing Sound lets you experience adventures in interactive sound. A team of visually impaired and blind game designers created the levels, stories and sounds for the VR game.

The story begins shortly before midnight in a sinister department store. Mutated creepers are playing a dangerous game there. The contents of the freezers have been frozen there for centuries. A group of children got into the department store at night and now - with the help of SONA's visitors - start a revolution.

A co-production of the Blindenverein Köln, the Sommerblut Kulturfestival, Un-Label's laboratory for inclusive culture and SONA.

Further information and accessibility:

SONA is a virtual reality game.
It takes place in complete darkness.
To participate, you move around in a dark room with headphones, a microphone and motion sensors.

No classic audio description is provided.
The game can be experienced by listening to sounds and spoken language. It is therefore accessible for people with visual impairments and blind people. The language spoken in the game is German.

Assistance dogs are welcome, but cannot be taken into the installation. There will be people to look after your dog.

Wheelchair users and people with hearing impairments are welcome, but the installation cannot be fully experienced. It would be an experiment that we undertake together.

The installation can be entered individually - one person every 30 minutes.
