What’s New in JAWS 18 you ask….

Dancing Dots Reading Music Accessible Music Technology from Dancing Dots for the Visually Impaired Musician Powered by JAWS, MAGic and ZoomText  CREATE, READ, PRACTICE, and PERFORM your music. Learn the score using your preferred mix of magnified print, braille, speech and verbal cues.

Dancing Dots Writing music Talking braille score combines verbal cues from JAWS with music braille shown on paperless braille display Low vision users read and write music at zoom level up to 10X. Type notes into your score using PC keyboard or play on attached musical keyboard. Quote from Sarah Outwater, blind composer: “It was the best feeling in the world to hear my teacher take a piece of music I had written, and sight-read it at the piano. There wasn't a choir singing, but I got shivers down my spine anyway, just knowing that now my music isn't just mine, I have the capability of sharing it with the whole world.”

Dancing Dots A light-hearted but (I hope) thought-provoking song about a blind guy who dreams of the first time he drives his "Google Car", that is, a self-driving car.  It is performed by a chorus formed of my students from my 2016 Summer Music Academy in Napa, California in a live performance we gave at the San Francisco Lighthouse last August 9.
