Exploring a shared visual language for mixed-ability co-creation
Semio is an early research probe on visual symbols and AI for mixed-ability co-creation. It is intentionally incomplete — a starting point for critique by people with intellectual disabilities and their support networks, not a finished product. AI acts as a transparent interpreter to check meaning, not as a voice that speaks for anyone.
