Get a little taste of the dark disability comedy from 2012, "Friending with Brain Injury!"
[Video description: A scrappy TV studio set up to look like "The Dating Game" with a host and player on one side and two contestants on the other side of a divider. The back curtain is decorated with flower power flowers, some with drawings of brains, and a sign indicating a wheelchair-accessible space. The host uses a wheelchair and is dressed to the nines. The other three are dressed casually and sit in folding metal chairs.]

"Friending with Brain Injury!" was created with generous funding from the Regional Arts & Culture Council.
A day in the life of an audio describer. Hard at work typing, until the office manager intervenes. [Image description: Me with my giant headphones on, with my regal black cat standing on my lap, face near the camera. He takes up the frame. I just look like I’m back there photobombing him.]
So much fun being on @thesporkful talking about cooking after #TBI !

#DisabilityCACE art exchange. A selfie of Brandon smiling and leaning down by his laptop. On the laptop screen is me, smiling and holding a sculpture of a crow who’s wearing my clown nose. We just finished making a digital collage by sharing screens on a video call about how disabled people are not disposable.
Look at the vibrant smiles on two people who sat and made crip art together from two time zones apart. [Image description: Me, a white woman with dark curls and big glasses taking a selfie with my computer monitor. On the screen is a Taiwanese woman with dark hair waving enthusiastically with a hand that has two fingers. Next to her face is a gray audio editing software interface. Green and purple lines on different tracks are Sandie and my voices being cut and edited together. She embroidered while I recorded and edited our conversation together.] #StayHome #DisabilityCultureCACE
