Thanks

Subject: [goodfeel] Dancing Dots Cited in Electronic Musician Magazine,
May, 2007 Issue 

 

Check out page 63 of the May issue of Electronic Musician for a
well-written article on accessibility for musicians with disabilities.
It's called: 

"Studio Solutions for Disabled Musicians" by Scott Wilkinson and 

Joanna Cazden.   

 

We're happy that the authors included our praise for some of the
companies that have been so supportive of our work including Cakewalk,
Sibelius and Freedom Scientific.  There's a bit of encouragement
included for other companies we'd like to see make some progress in the
area of accessibility.  You will also find some names that may be quite
familiar to you: Mike Mandel, Gordon Kent, David Pinto, Peter Elsea,
Albert Milani and yours truly.  There are also a number of other
interesting people who may not be so familiar to you and their own
stories and struggles are engaging and enlightening.

 

My thanks to so many of you who work every day to improve access in
general.  In particular, I applaud Mike Mandel and Gordon Kent who have
been advocating on behalf of blind musicians at the last few annual
meetings of the National Association of Music Merchandisers (NAMM)
shows.  Their patient persistence has already had a number of tangible
good results including this exposure to the mainstream music industry.
It's just really nice to be heard over the general din out there, isn't
it?

 

Regards,

Bill
