We’ve been busy all summer working on four main projects:
1) Creating an emergency respirator to aid breathing and air filtration during fire season. We’re working on a do-it-yourself tutorial to enable folks to make these respirators at home and for cheap. Watch this space!
2) Accessibility and art. Working on tools to enable art pieces to be accessible to all senses. This involves creation of our own art piece, and creating methods for other artists to create accessible art.
3) Assistive technologies: this project aims to create better, cheaper assistive technologies for Cal disabled students. Disability accommodations at UC Berkeley aren’t perfect, and it is motivating to work towards equal opportunities for educational attainment at a major US university.
4) Building a new website! You can find our shiny new website here: new website link
In addition to these 4 projects, we’ve been preparing for Fall 2021 and the beginning of (mostly) in-person campus life! We’re so excited for the new semester, and for new student recruitment!
Thanks for reading this quick update!
