Joe Clark Micropatronage
Watch and support Joe Clark, while he tries to raise $7 million Canadian Dollars from the media industry, to launch one of the biggest Projects for Accessibility Standards happened in the history of modern media ever.
This activity is based on the the Open & Closed Project which has been running already for four years.
One side activity of the Open and close Project is also the Design of new fonts.
You can read more about it here
Joe Clark is a well known Accessibilty Expert and Researcher, and his Book: Building Accessible Websites is a valuable Guide for converting inaccessible Websites into accessible ones. This Book has been a reliable Source for me to learn more about Accessiblity. Probably the only complete resource about the subject around.
If you donate, you also get a special Wallpaper from the Tea Makers
The Goal is to collect $7.777, to keep Joe Clark going for four months, so he can raise the above mentioned amount for an Accessibility research Project to create World Wide Standards for those four fields of Accessibility:
- captioning
- audio description
- subtitling and
- dubbing
Another option to help, is to put one of the Banners on your Website to publicize this project. You can get them from here.
Well, I think this is a good thing.
