The Difference Engine by Talking Birds
The Fear of Fear team are excited to be collaborating with Talking Birds Theatre Company to make performance more accessible by using their app, the Difference Engine. The Difference Engine is designed to make performances and events accessible to deaf, hard-of-hearing and partially-sighted audience members by delivering captioning or audio description direct to their own mobile device. Talking Birds developed the Difference Engine in order to 'give more people the chance to access experimental, outdoor, small scale or immersive performance' - something we fully support and are proud to be offering in both performances.
The Difference Engine is free, discreet, simple to use and available on iOS and Android. The app is ready to use at least twenty minutes before each performance begins, and setting it up there and then is quick and easy.
