@WonderpusGospel Oooooh I can actually swing by for this one!

Inaccessibility for colourblindness is caused by design choices. A design issue, not an engineering issue. The fix is design choices, not engineering workarounds. Filters are inherently exclusionary, they aren't the answer. Fix the design instead of trying to fix people's eyes.

@GMNeiksans @chessable @GmKovalenkoIgor Not in a course, but when marking my students' work, I often mistype 'appropriate' as 'appropirate'. Always a funny one!

We recently took part in the Sony Assistive Musical Instrument Hackathon - a deep dive into exploring new accessible music technology. Thanks to @Sony, @Drake_Music @PMStudioUK @Wshed @Yurumusic411 & @MyWorldCreates for making this boundary-pushing project possible.

@sightlessKombat @StarWarsOutlaws It was a super funny stream! Thanks for the good times!

Mistyping the word 'appropriate' as 'appro-pirate' in student feedback and now wanting all feedback to be in pirate prose.

"YEARGH, your musical tunes be containing a lot of the high C's which be appro-pirate for ye musicking. Ya passed me test on plagARGHism."

With Xbox Ambassadors shutting down soon, are there any @Twitch stream teams who might be interested in an accessibility-focused streamer without sight?
For me, collaboration is at the heart of #accessibility advancement, especially in #videoGames. I want to continue that trend.

@lhainesaudio Dude it's SO good!!!
