The design of forms and contents determines who that communication/product/environment is addressed to and who will participate as a user or as a represented and protagonist person. Designing accessibility “by design”, intentionally, means involving, from the early stages of ideation, those who are most often excluded from places, languages, and representations.
Time2 Foundation in collaboration with GiustiEventi organizes a talk and a workshop to reflect on the accessibility of communication within the framework of Graphic Days in the City.
Talk
Thursday, May 23 at 6:00 PM @ Open, 62/b Corso Stati Uniti, Turin
