Synopsis: To be experienced can mean blindness for the world.
Invisible is, what doesn’t leave any impression.
The film blind is divided into four round dances. Every round dance is devoted to a philosophical approach, assigned a season and has to pass through the motives eagle, owl and vulture. Each round dance includes five dances, with each one of those being a quote. The quotes are shown in braille, but not readable. As the projection of the writing is not palpable even blind people can not read it.
1st Round Dance / Jaynes / Spring
1. dance: Language is an organ of perception.
2. dance: Perceived outside world becomes metaphor for the inner world.
3. dance: Consiousness is a world of analogy on linguistic basis.
4. dance: The search for the state of innocence in the mythologies of the factual.
5. dance: The concept of truth is a cultural orientation.
2nd Round Dance / Heisenberg / Summer
1. dance: Reality is different depending on if we observe it or not.
2. dance: The right question is the way to solving the problem.
3. dance: Matter and energy as complementary descriptions of reality.
4. dance: We can not entirely objectify the result of an observation.
5. dance: If one insists to never address an error, one has to remain silent.
3rd Round Dance / Wittgenstein / Fall
1. dance: The world is the entity of facts, not of things. Everything we can describe could also be different.
2. dance: The rules of logic are tautologies. Therefore they state nothing.
3. dance: The meaning of the world has to lie outside of itself. The subject does not belong to the world, but is a border of the world.
4. dance: The solution to problem of life one realises when the problem dissolves.
5. dance: The things one can not talk about, one has to keep silent about.
4th Round Dance / Popper / Winter
1. dance: A statement is true when it agrees with the facts.
2. dance: Knowledge is a product of human kind. All theories are our own inventions.
3. Objective knowledge is without a recognising subject.
4. dance: All humans are fallible. Our search for objective truth is threatened by our hope to have already found it.
5. dance: We can not confuse truth with security.
