@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!

Today I resumed the work on my 5th @chessable course, together with @GmKovalenkoIgor. A question to fellow authors - what's the funniest typo you've ever had while creating a course? I have one that just keeps repeating!

@Joewilsonaudio If it ain't Midlands ones, they're the wrong ones 💯

Short break away to a very autumnal Edinburgh!

Pumpkin Sign Language?! 🎃

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. 📸 @BLIKMO

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

Just wanted to say a huge thanks to everyone who showed up for yesterday's @StarWarsOutlaws stream and absolutely smashed it with the support! Thanks for the raids, the cheers, the subs... all of it, it means so much!

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!!!
