When the visually impaired begin to participate in
audio description
Mengq Wang
How can the visually impaired transition from being "audience members" of audio descriptions to being "creators"? Veteran information accessibility expert Wang Mengqi (born blind) will share his personal experiences: from translating foreign works to participating in local productions, and then training volunteers. How can the involvement of the visually impaired enhance the quality of works and promote industry standards? How can technology and the humanities be integrated? Let's explore the deeper meaning of information accessibility—from "being served" to "co-creating," making the world more equal and inclusive.
The Sanhe people
Jeffrey Wang
The Sanhe people of Shenzhen, an unseen underclass of migrant workers, they left their hometowns to earn an extra 4 yuan per hour, only to end up as day laborers in Shenzhen, yet branded as "lazy" and "good-for-nothing" by the media.
They aren't chasing freedom, as many assume; rather, they're driven to the brink by exploitation, prejudice, and the impossibility of return.
They ask not for pity, but to be seen as ordinary people. Jeffrey Wang, Sanhe Storyteller, invites us to reconsider these people—to set aside judgment and see them with respect.
