#tactilegraphics — Public Fediverse posts

If you missed our #AxeCon talk about #AstroAccess and building #TactileGraphics for zero-G space flight, and are interested in learning more about how #Blind people can draw and create their own digital graphics and designs through #SVG code and Sensational Blackboards, come check us out again at the Bay Area #Accessibility and #InclusiveDesign Meetup talk! https://www.meetup.com/a11ybay/events/294149681

Can't wait for #AxeCon to start next week! If you want to check out amazing talks and panels surrounding #a11y development, design, and updates in #Deque tools for evaluating #Accessibility, come register for free! And don't miss our talk about creating #TactileGraphics for the #AstroAccess project on the 15th at 1pm PT! https://www.deque.com/axe-con/register/ https://www.deque.com/axe-con/sessions/maker-space-a-diy-accessible-workflow-for-tactile-graphics-used-in-zero-gravity-flight/

#Introduction I’m a blind person interested in #AccessibleAstronomy. #ImageDescriptions, #sonifications, #TactileGraphics, how else can we experience the universe? This will be a space to highlight work in this area, with the occasional original thought thrown in.

If you are attending #AxeCon this year, come check out our Wildcard talk discussing #TactileGraphics and the #AstroAccess project! @ChanceyFleet will lead as we talk about making tactile panels for #accessible #spaceFlight for the #Blind. Our talk starts on March 15th at 4pm ET. https://youtu.be/749CIQyMEMY

Had an amazing time at our #TactileDrawing retreat out in #Toronto! We showed off different methods of rendering #TactileGraphics to people at the #CNIB, then back at our house we went into intensive study of different drawing techniques using #SensationalBlackboards for 3 days in our group while learning ways to teach perspective, obscuration, composition, orthographic views, and other techniques to #blind artists, and so much more! I love being able to draw again and teaching others!
