I searched on YouTube for
Gutenberg Mainz
and filtered for
This week
and I found 12 videos uploaded 3 days ago about a symposium called
Alphabetica 2019.
Apparently held in Amsterdam.
It seems that the videos were listed for that search as the notes
include
"Presented in collaboration with the Institut Designlabor Gutenberg
(Hochshule Mainz)," … [and several other organizations]
so both the words Gutenberg and Mainz were matched to the search.
So, a serendipitous discovery.
There is an interesting section in one video about Bliss and a new
interesting development relating to the (possible) encoding of Bliss
characters into Unicode.

Here are links to two videos of continuous walks through Mainz: each of
them includes the Statue of Gutenberg and the outside of the Gutenberg
Museum yet are otherwise almost non-overlapping in their routes.
