Quali analogie tra scrittura e video in lingua dei segni? Esperienze di traduzione nell'accessibilità museale dell'Istituto Statale per Sordi

This article draws on the extensive experience the Italian Public Institute of the Deaf (ISSR) has acquired in the field of museum accessibility, which has become a cutting-hedge sector bringing together professionals with interdisciplinary perspectives to meet the challenge of building an all-inclusive society. In the last two decades, relevant technological and social changes have indeed affected society and, especially, the life of the Deaf community. Starting from the assumption that sign languages are oral languages, used by a deaf linguistic minority in a syncretic correlation with the hearing majority, we will question whether a signed video, that nearly anyone can produce today using artificial-limb/smartphones, can actually be considered the equivalent of a writing system.
