As a blind person, I find it quite sad that the most common use of Unicode Braille these days is to make terminal apps less accessible to the people Braille was originally intended for.

Genuine question, but aside from a monochrome display to tactile/physical-sense augmented accessibility device, to what other mediums could visually impaired people appreciate visually intricate phenomena such as cellular automata?

Maybe the recently posted "audio from billiards/2d particles" could be adapted with a ruleset to bring Conways GoL to a less visual-centric medium.

Sorry, as a fellow blind person, I couldn't read this because it wasn't in braille.
