    Slide deck accessibility is often studied for people who are blind or visually impaired, but rarely for other people with access needs. We first conducted focus groups with 17 people with slide deck access needs and found that their access needs differed greatly and often conflicted. Moreover, some people’s access needs changed throughout the day (e.g., needing lower contrast colors at night). Therefore, we conducted a design probe with 14 of the existing participants to understand the experience of using a plug-in that lets audience members at a presentation modify a local copy of the slides to meet their accessibility needs. We then interviewed four slide deck authors and presenters to offer a preview of the perspectives that other stakeholders of this tool might have. Finally, we created a functional prototype as a Google Slides plug-in with a subset of the features requested by the participants.

    The ability to easily create embroidered lace textile objects that can be manipulated in structured ways, i.e., metamaterials, could enable a variety of applications from interactive tactile graphics to physical therapy devices. However, while machine embroidery has been used to create sensors and digitally enhanced fabrics, its use for creating metamaterials is an understudied area. This article reviews recent advances in metamaterial textiles and conducts a design space exploration of metamaterial freestanding lace embroidery. We demonstrate that freestanding lace embroidery can be used to create out-of-plane kirigami and auxetic effects. We provide examples of applications of these effects to create a variety of prototypes and demonstrations.
