Herbert Spencer
@mrhspencer.bsky.social
Designer. UX a11y. Now in New Zealand, pretending to be a serious researcher.
Exploring AI, technology, and inclusion—sometimes all at once.
Speaks HTML, CSS, and P5.js, but still struggles with human. 
Builds things, breaks things, calls it “iteration.”
On Monday, I gave my confirmation of candidature presentation for my doctoral project:

“MediaFranca: A Practice-Oriented Investigation into a Generative Pictographic System for Cognitive Accessibility”
