Audio Description At The Cinema

Hello Everyone,

Last year I went to aee the movie adaptation of Wicked! I've seen thr west end musical, which you can read about in my "Is Wicked Worth It?" blog post. So, I was excited to see what the movie was like. I went to an audio description screening with my friend in London. As a fan of the musical I loved the movie version, you could tell they put a lot of love and effort in it! It was made by people who love the musical and stayed true to the source material. I also liked the additional scenes they added which made the story more impactful. This month's post is about my experience with audio description at the cinema, also known as Movie Theatre for you Americans reading this post.

My Thoughts On Glidance

 Hello Everyone,

Last month, I went to the in-person talk about Glide by Glidance in London. Launching in winter 2025, it's a new mobility aid for people with sight loss, that could replace a white cane, or guide dog. This post is about my thoughts on the device.

Blind People Use Phones Too

Hello Everyone,

I hope you're well. 

I'm surprised that in 2024, a post like this needed to be written. For context, a friend of mine sent me a reel on Instagram. Both the content and the comments inspired me to share some clarity on the situation.
