What stories are we sharing?
Our blog is intended for anyone who may wish to take inspiration from the experiences of our community. We have two collection of posts: lifestyle and science & technology. The latter shares experiences of blind individuals learning about web design, creating accessible science content, and emerging technologies used for accessibility, such as generative artificial intelligence. Topics include web design challenges and accessibility solutions, as well as issue tracking specific to our own web development journey.
We also discuss living with disabilities through the lens of personal adventures, identity exploration, and social participation. Topics cover diverse experiences, from daily activities to extraordinary journeys, and the importance of understanding multifaceted identities. We also delve into the power of reading and special interests like entrepreneurship and self-advocacy.
Stories in Science & Technology
Stories of science and technology share our experiences of learning about web design, tools for consuming and creating accessible science content, and emerging technologies through the lens of blind people.

Web design & Web accessibility
Here, I aim to log challenges and solutions encountered while building the Project27 website with our community.
Open the Web design & Web accessibility volumeIssue tracking
Then there is a general page to track issues. This can be issues with the quality of the creative content, issues with web development, or issues with accessibility. Some of this issue tracking will happen through short posts, and some will happen through more robust methods, such as GitHub's own issue tracking. Yes, I know. Issue is an overused word. Issue-Issue-Issue... Any issues with that?
Open the Issue tracking volumeStories in Lifestyle
We share the Way we See Things, as people with lived experience of disability. We would like to encourage people with sight-loss, learning disabilities, their families, teachers, and friends to adopt a growth mindset and enjoy social participation. We want to be open, and lead by example.

Living with disabilities
Living with disabilities is an adventure. There are so many things in life that give us the opportunity to think about how different people with different needs approach their adventure. Let it be a bus journey, a long weekend in the woods, or a sailing trip across the Atlantic, we like to speculate on one or another journey of our lives.

I am not just I. I am Me, myself, and I. I believe it is important to understand that we can not stick labels on people. The way we see a person is as a collection of identities. Through these set of scribbles, we’d like to illustrate this point through our own identities. As our founder’s good friend once said - ‘Daniel, you are 50 shades of Daniel’.
Open the Identities volumeReading
Once you know yourself, yes, all many of yourselves, it is time to get to know others. Luckily, the greatest invention of time - writing - enable you and I to meet, and have a conversation with anyone. Well, anyone who decided to publish a book. Here, we’ll attempt to paint a picture of the conversations between book authors and Project27 community members.

As we learn new skills, we discover new interests. Special interests cover topics, such as entrepreneurship, science communication, haptics, self-advocacy, and more.
