Accessibility is not embedded in the device. It is produced collaboratively.

pattern: preparation“[Being blind], you can't just do things on the spur of the moment. Stay organized and plan.”

preparation vs. intervention
“natural” collaboration can be planned for
supports learning tasks “I can do”
“stuck,” “frustrated” unpredictable, “emergency” does not support learning tasks “I can’t do”
