Cultural/Context information for the jury.

300,000 LED billboards undergo glitches due to Lebanon’s frequent power cuts. As a result, these panels are left with black spots that appear randomly and multiply with time. The Lebanese people have become accustomed to this mishap hiding certain parts of the ads on these panels. Audi decided to use these black spots as a visual language to depict shapes of hidden obstacles and as a source of media to highlight its “Pre Sense” function that detects hazards unseen by the driver.
