Talking Vision: Assistive Technology Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow - 18 January
2012
http://www.visionaustralia.org.au/info.aspx?page=823&news=2451
Talking Vision' is Vision Australia's national radio program on blindness and
low vision.
As the world of adaptive technology races along, we pause this week to reflect
and speculate. Stephen Jolley has brought together a panel of three people who
each share their unique experience, insights and perspective. Of the two who
are blind, one leads a training organisation in the United States, to equip
people with vision loss to use PC technology and the other uses assistive
technology in his work as a communications analyst. The contributor who has low
vision, influences the Australian environment through his senior role with
Media Access Australia.
Participants are:
CathyAnne Murtha from Tucson Arizona who heads the Access Technology Institute;
Bill Jolley, a Communications Analyst with the Australian Communications and
Media Authority in Melbourne;
DR Scott Hollier, Project Manager & Western Australia Manager with Media Access
Australia.
You can listen here to the program or go to

recent programs and links to the audio.
