Hello all KVR Audio readers,
Yesterday (February 21st, 2024) we had a Music Accessibility Standard SPecial Interest Group (MASSIG) meeting with Juho Tuomainen (WG Chair), Vanessa Faschi from Audio Modeling (WG Backup Chair and WG Scribe), Athan Billias (The MIDI Association ) , Peter Jonas from MuseScore Limited and Jay Pocknell, the Music Support Officer from the Culture, Media and Immersive Technologies Team of
RNIB present on the meeting.
We discussed about the user stories of the Music Accessibility Standard, including the definition of the user roles (eg "I am a visually impaired music professional" or "I am a visually impaired aspiring music student"). We also discussed about the similarities between the ongoing MIDI 2.0 standard development (and its profiles) and the Music Accessibility Standard. Finally, we also discussed about collecting up information of the accessibilityto a Google Sheets document, meaning that we would put links todifferent things, eg YouTube channels and websites. Also, it is important to tell you that the new website of The MIDI Association will be running soon. On the blog section , there will be a category for Music Accessibility articles about the Music Accessibility Standard (MAS). I am looking forward to
meeting these people again in two weeks!
Kind regards,
Juho Tuomainen, WG Chair
