I am currently working on my thesis to design an inclusive experience of watching sports with more excitement using non-visual information. I want to understand your watching sports experiences through online interviews. <br><br>I am looking for blind and low-vision adults older than 18 years old and located in the United States. The interview will take up to 30-40 minutes. We can use Zoom, a phone call, or the other similar platform that works best for you.<br><br>All sports fans are welcome, but you don't have to be a sports fan to participate in the study. Your participation is meaningful, and it will help me understand the topic more deeply. <br><br>If you are interested in the study or have any questions, please feel free to reach out to me through email (<a href="mailto:saki.asakawa@nyu.edu" target="_blank">saki.asakawa@nyu.edu</a>) or phone (4127211181). <br><br>Thank you for your attention and time!<br><br>Best,<br>Saki Asakawa</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Lou Ann Blake, J.D.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Director of Research Programs, Blindness Initiatives<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>200 East Wells Street, Baltimore, MD 21230<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>(410) 659-9314, extension 2221 | <a href="mailto:lblake@nfb.org">lblake@nfb.org</a><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><a href="https://nfb.org/"><span style='border:solid windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in;text-decoration:none'><img border=0 width=210 height=76 style='width:2.1833in;height:.7916in' id="Picture_x0020_4" src="cid:image005.jpg@01D706A3.0A2594F0" alt="Image removed by sender.
