Comments on: Video from a BSL user http://wecue.net/2010/02/video-from-a-bsl-user/ Discussion on how to live, learn, and work using Cued Speech Fri, 25 Jun 2010 05:24:12 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: marisa http://wecue.net/2010/02/video-from-a-bsl-user/comment-page-1/#comment-463 marisa Fri, 25 Jun 2010 05:24:12 +0000 http://wecue.net/2010/02/video-from-a-bsl-user/#comment-463 Here's another cued (British English) music video from the Exeter Deaf Academy in the UK: "Everybody Hurts: Hope for Haiti" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pNU1BSvuX_Q They used to have one for "All I Want for Christmas" but it seems the clip has been taken down. Also, has anyone here seen the videos in the Gallaudet library collection that are called "artistic cued speech?" They were made at MSSD in the early 1970s, and I'm curious how they compare to more modern examples. They are non-circulating VHS tapes, so if any of you DC/MD/VA locals watch them, let us know.

I remember going to Northern Ireland and not hearing about other deaf students in mainstream school. Although when I went to Oxford, I was a guinea pig in testing if the fire alarm worked for a deaf person coming into the university after my visit. I'm currently working on my museum studies and I cannot believe some of the views that some museum workers have of deaf people (one said she didn't think deaf people could read the labels, another was like "Are they actually able to visit the museum? They are a certain education aren't they, apart from you?"). I hope to change people's perceptions as I work my way into the museum sector and my hope is to write an article in the Museums Journal along the way.

This is her final performance at the end of one semester of CS. Very good for a beginner! (It's a transliterated song, with the man's voice on one hand and the woman's voice on the other -- and sometimes both voices/hands simultaneously. I'm curious what native cuers think of this technique.) Does anyone know who she is, and where she is now? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zjKj48xTdBs&feature=related Speaking of ‘holy crap’ – I just saw this clip of a student who was learning Cued Speech in Kelly Crain’s program in Florida.

Thanks for finding this video... really fascinating. I hope she follows up with more, about her progress (or lack thereof, since she's an adult now). She seems to have some phonemic awareness built in, so maybe she'll re-learn somewhat quickly...who knows? Holy crap! Thanks for finding this video… really fascinating.
