Amy presented research exploring accessibility in Digital Musical Instrument (DMI) design. An overview of accessibility and inclusion in the design process was provided culminating in the presentation of a framework for the evaluation of DMI. Whilst the evaluation of DMI is based on a range of criteria, Amy's framework is based around enjoyment, playability, robustness, and design specification.
