Notes
1 The formulation (mis)use here is employed to describe uses of digital materials that may not reflect their prescribed use. An openness to using digital materials in ways that seem technically or nominally wrong can instead reveal novel and sometimes liberatory uses for common digital tools.
2 I have developed an online resource, Universal Adaptor (Figure 2), which uses graphic narratives and tutorial videos to demonstrate how to implement these specific solutions, as well as some others, in a digital arts learning environment. Universal Adaptor is accessible at http://gildedgreen.com/universaladaptor/
3 Misfitting is a feminist disability concept articulated by Rosemarie Garland-Thomson (Citation2011) that focuses on the relationship between a body and the designed environment. When a person experiences misfitting, the fault is not with their body, so much as with the space that has failed to accommodate, or fit, it.
