Accessible Data and Sound

"Accessible Data and Sound" Presentation by Regine Gilbert Oct. 12


The Eclipse Soundscapes: Citizen Science Project (ES: CSP) will introduce accessible opportunities for citizen scientists to participate in real and meaningful scientific research focusing on how eclipses affect Earth's life. Regine and her students have conducted in-depth research to create a multi-sensory experience related to the 2023 and 2024 Eclipse. This talk discussed the analysis and design behind making a web application focused on accessibility for the NASA Eclipse Soundscapes project. She explored with 200 participants what it means to create accessible experiences related to science, sound, and data. This presentation is based upon work supported by NASA under project Eclipse Soundscapes: Citizen Science Project, award No. 80NSSC21M0008.
