<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I'm proud to announce the launch of Blind Productions.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Blind Productions is a showcase and community I built to celebrate blind creative professionals \u2014 musicians, DJs, actors, authors, podcasters, and content creators \u2014 and to give us one place to discover each
other's work, collaborate, and connect.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Here's the honest part: this is the ground floor. The doors are open, the foundation is built, and now it's time to fill it up. I'm inviting you to help shape what this becomes \u2014 a living archive that future
generations can search to discover the musicians and creators who came before them, and a moderated space where we create, support one another, and network as a community.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">What's here today:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">\u2022 A searchable directory of blind creatives, each profile with a bio, links to their work, audio to listen to, and video to watch.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">\u2022 A moderated community forum for collaboration, support, opportunities, and networking.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">\u2022 Accessibility built in from the ground up \u2014 screen-reader friendly, fully keyboard operable, with adjustable text, themes, and high contrast on every page.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">So here's my ask: start submitting profile suggestions. Nominate yourself. Nominate the artists you admire. Bring the people who deserve to be found. Create a free account, join the conversation, and let's
build something that lasts.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">This is how a legacy gets started \u2014 together.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
