We got a wonderful package in the mail this week. Our 2021 Special Recognition Achievement Award from the American Council of the Blind's #AudioDescription Project! Thanks again to @ACBnational and @ADPwebmaster for this amazing honour.

Ready for part two of our episode on #AI generated description? In the first episode we gave #BeMyAI some easy, straightforward images to describe. This time, we try to get saucy. Emphasis on TRY! #a11y #AudioDescription #BlindTwitter https://t.co/uhepQWqZ2v

Have you experienced #AI generated visual description recently? It’s gotten shockingly impressive very fast! This week we examine real world examples of AI Description in the first of a two part series. #AudioDescription #A11y https://t.co/ZipJT9rpej

Hey #BlindTwitter and #AudioDescription fans! It's been busy here at #TalkDescriptionToMe HQ, but we recently had a night off and got chatting about favourite #StarTrek shows. To celebrate #StarTrekDay we switched on our mics and recorded a new episode! https://t.co/ttkdQUpoci

Do you know the story of Toronto’s Little Jamaica neighbourhood, or Africville in Halifax? Have you heard the legend of John “Daddy” Hall? Ever been to Rockhead’s Paradise in the Harlem of the North? Hear JJ tell these description-rich #BHM stories at:

Speaking as the Chris half of TalkDescription, when my third party Twitter ap is snuffed out I'll stop contributing to this lovely feed. However we can be found on Mastodon at [email protected]

So lovely to chat with Shawn on the Limitless Blind Beginnings podcast. We got to revisit the TD2Me world, and briefly tour the universe. Check it out! https://t.co/G2T7UYwsGV

Hey #AudioDescription fans! Working with the @CNIB, I recorded some description-rich stories to honour and celebrate #BlackHistoryMonth. Hope you enjoy, and are inspired to share! -JJ #a11y #BlindTwitter https://t.co/ytstPSQrEj

@coryjmc Wow, so interesting. I don't know why scientists don't just keep studying this until they understand it; it's so taken for granted, but so inexplicable.

[JJ Hunt @HeyHeyDoubleJ]

To honour and celebrate #BlackHistoryMonth the @CNIB invited me to gather stories from Black history in Canada, and tailor the telling to a #Blind audience. These description-rich stories are now available as a podcast. #BHM #BlindTwitter #AudioDescription https://t.co/SMfcPifavk

[Talk Description To Me @TalkDescription]

@Jennissary Yeah, harder to assess in a big city or something. My only experience of it is hearing conversations stop as I approach and resume after I've passed, so the awareness of being stared at is cognative rather than whatever telepathy is going on for sighted folk who experience it.

[Talk Description To Me @TalkDescription]

I’m preoccupied by that thing where sighted people feel like they’re being looked at, then they turn and find someone staring at them. I’ve always been blind and never experienced it. Why don’t people call this telepathy? Have other blind people experienced it? -C

[The Invisible Universe @TheInvisiverse]

@realjoshurban Oh for a library of 3D models of fictional space ships. SciFi geeks who don't experience the world visually miss out, cause there usually isn't time in audio description of movies or TV for the extended descriptions we crave.

[The Invisible Universe @TheInvisiverse]

And like a new bright star added to the firmament, another description-rich astronomy gem from Josh Urban, mixaphorically speaking.

@BorrisInABox Perfection is elusive. I'd be a better writer if I used a braille display more often.

We're establishing ourselves on Mastidon. All the kids are doing it! I'm working hard to rein in my Flinstones jokes. You can find us at [email protected]

@MrBrokenEyes Remember when Fred had to go back to high school, and dipped a fellow students hair in the ink, and had to go sit in the corner waring a dunce cap? I bet he didn't sit there stoney-faced. -C

[Talk Description To Me @TalkDescription]

We'll mostly be sticking to twitter until my third party ap is snuffed out, but we'll try to always cross post. -C
