This morning I dealt with a driver wondering aloud "Gee, what kind of jobs can #blind people even have?" and, "Gee, what did any of them EVER do before the Meta glasses?" I patiently explained all the varied jobs done by the blind people I personally know, along with all the skills to be gained at the community rehab program where I work.

My Young magnolia tree finally has a bloom!! We have very sandy soil where I live so I’ve been giving her lots of water, compost, and even a bit of plant food now and again. #bloomscrolling

Hi! I have very low vision, and this is how I draw! So when I share my artwork, you'll know how it was made. This is called a desktop video magnifier or a CCTV. #a11y #accessibility #BlindMasto

For the past three weeks, the #disquietJunto Project has been building asynchronous trio collabs!! In the first week, a person creates a piece leaving room for others. Second week, it becomes a duet. Person #1 is on the left and person #2 is on the right. In week 3 the piece may become a trio with the third collaborator being added in the center! #musicproduction #musodon #musicianlife

I only logged in on one computer, and have only been watching that one show!!! The Email told me to go to help center and use their chat bot who chould resolve the issue for me. Spoiler alert: The supposed "real person" who the robot put on only fed me little B. S. lines and did absolutely nothing to help me at all.

They told me to go back to the website and re-subscribe. I am certainly not going to do that with no way to reach an actual brain by phone if this ever happens again. F*** You Paramount!!! :( :( :( Guess I'll be hoping they release season 2 on DVD, which they probably won't.

Oh and this was a fairly easy screen reader task since I didn't actually have to DO anything while monitoring the inane unhelpful replies. Let it be known to the world that in general, web-based text chats are a horrible way to give instructions to a screen reader user if you're actually helping them fix a problem with a service!

#surgeXT 's Twist oscillator behaves a lot like Mutable Instruments' Braids, and for this project, I discovered Particle noise!! More crackling comes from having patched the #Moog #matriarch 's two LFOs into its DC-coupled mixer. Then, the shared sample fragments were put into Short Circuit XT.

If you might be around at the time and feel so inclined, please RSVP and maybe even give me a follow while you're at it (shameless plug; still getting comfortable with these). The EP will also be making its way to Bandwagon soon as well.

My parents, nearing their late 70s, have a collection of small bells. The bells in this piece are three of these bells from their mantle which I recorded last year. I put the humungus Galactic reverb from AirWindows on the hanging bell, and used his "Take Care" pitch effect on the two smaller bells later in the piece. I like to make my sends post-fader and really let the FX shine while I turn down the originals.

I'm concerned that for a great majority of my compositions, I seem to do an A-B-A style, meaning that I begin with one section, and set of sounds, then present a contrasting section, before bringing the original sound and / or melody back around at the end. I'm thinking that next I'd like to try creating a piece with three or four completely contrasting sections that doesn't return to the first. Any other composition forms I should try?? #musicianlife #musiccommunity

Folks, I am so excited and jazzed about this!! I am finally a member of RAMPD recording artists and music professionals with disabilities!! I have wanted this for a long time now! If you’re an artist with a Disability, visible or invisible, definitely check this out. If you’re a venue, recording studio, award show or anything else, check out the trainings they offer to other organizations for inclusion. #a11y #BlindMasto #accessibility #disabledmusician

@ZBennoui@dragonscave.space @Rosalyn@mindly.social I’m sorry your school was like that. One reason could be that some people who do that kind of work view their work as charity. They think it is their duty to inflict a moral imperative on others, and others who may not be as able to go other places or access other information are at a very distinct disadvantage.

Basically the percussive hits went into Sitala, the loovered door brushes went into Short Circuit XT and the toilet flush went through Simplicitor in #vcvRack and then through CrunchCoat from Airwindows! Have fun!
