Tomorrow is Global Accessibility Awareness Day #GAAD! I'm excited to be giving a talk on Inclusive Workplaces...not so excited that it needs to be redone as it made no sense while I rehearsed. Last minute stress makes the best Global Accessibility Awareness Day?

Sperlonga! Didn’t get to go to the sites, but the museum and beach were amazing.

@STORI3D_PAST Thanks!

What better way to spend a birthday than visiting Pompeii and Positano/the Amalfi Coast?

[Deb Mayers @debmayers24]

@vr_sam Oh fantastic! Where at? I’m on a tour today but headed back to see the Naples Museum and Herculaneum at my own pace on Sunday.

[Deb Mayers @debmayers24]

The Vatican Museums are not for the faint of heart. Glad to have been on a tour, but unfortunately didn’t get to see all the sculptures I wanted. So will be back and ready to battle the swarms of people.

Finally made it to Rome…5 years after I stopped studying Ancient History 🙃

Now the trick is trying to tolerate the heat 🥵

1/ I just posted a 15-part Voices of VR podcast series on XR Accessibility from the recent @XRAccess Symposium.
It's like an 8-hour course on XR #a11y covering all of the latest issues.
I'm also launching transcripts for 1200+ episodes!
See thread below for links to each episode

@benz145 Definitely today. Start developing early and getting to know the accessibility features.

Excited to be at @XRAccess symposium today!

CV: For focusing attention, for something happening behind the user. Don’t really like the arrows, but as we see eye tracking integrated maybe we can take advantage of this.
