First Post of 2008 Nothing really interesting to say at the moment, but I had some interesting links I wanted to share.
Creature Discomforts- a series of ads about physical disabilities produced by Leonard Cheshire Disability and the creators of Wallace and Gromit. All of the claymation Aardman animals are voice-acted by real people talking about life with their disabilities and the obstacles they face because of inaccessibility and stigma.
D-PAN- music videos beautifully re-interpreted in ASL by deaf performers. I've kinda been perseverating on their version of "Waiting on the World to Change" and watching it over and over. :-)
the seam of skin and scales- Poem by Little Light. Very powerful and moving, regardless of whether you're cis- or transsexual.
Happy New Year, everyone!
