We are excited to announce that we will be launching as part of Drake Music’s next DMLab event on the 29th October. If you a Disabled artist involved in developing technology, movement, music, or theatre, we’d particularly like to meet you! This event is free. Please visit this link for event info and booking:
David Bobier and Charles Matthews recently attended Drake Music’s DMLab meeting in London UK, where they presented technology that translates sound to light and vibrations.
Charles Matthews has posted a discussion of music technology, accessibility, and the idea of “Disabled artist lead” to the Bela.io blog.
