I posted a clip of John Hull giving a talk a while back. I really enjoyed what he had to say about becoming a blind person, that for a long time he was simply a sighted person who couldn't see. It was only after he had been blind for a couple year that he started to become a blind person.

Yes, that film came through the San Francisco international film Festival a few months ago, and we actually got to meet the directors and take them out to coffee afterwards. It was a beautiful movie, despite the fact that the Alamo drafthouse here in San Francisco didn't originally have audio description set up, and only did so after we notify the directors that they didn't have the means for description. Thankfully they got a system in place before we came to see it after the movie house was contacted by the directors, but the Drafthouse also grabbed a very stupid system which were huge headsets that had description in one ear and absolutely nothing in the other and you hadd to wear them askew on your head just to hear the movie audio.

Anyways, the movie was fantastic and I immediately downloaded the audiobook that it partially came from. I wish I could have seen the visuals, but the idea of falling water and rain highlighting and expanding an audial World was absolutely amazing. Very sad that John passed away before the film was completed.
