RGS: A Possible Writing System for LIS for Severe Communication Disabilities?
summary
The presentation describes work by La Casa delle Luci to create graphic representations of Italian Sign Language (LIS) signs to support people with severe communicative disabilities. It explains that while multimodal communication and symbols are used, existing written forms of LIS and many symbols are impractical or unclear for this group, so the project and a graphic studio are developing clear visual sign-graphics to supplement current symbol systems and promote access to reading and writing.
