A Version of Access

摘要

This article explores accessibility ontologically, proposing nonequal design as a way to include and encourage difference. Part One situates the possibility for a multiple version approach to accessibility; Part Two finds affinities in science and technology studies where several figures have explored the politics of multiple versions of ontologies; Part Three introduces three design principles-syncopation, medium specificity, and versioning-for enacting how an nonequal approach opens up generative possibilities for accessibility.
