“Metaverse” technologies, such as spatial audio, virtual reality (VR), and augmented reality (AR), present new possibilities for disabled artists. To explore how artists use metaverse technologies – as well as the frictions that inhibit access – the authors describe the events of “CripTech Metaverse Lab,” which invited a cohort of disabled artists for a three-day workshop featuring metaverse experiences and a speculative design lab. Observing how participants creatively navigated these encounters, we introduce “aesthetic in-access” as a shared praxis developed bydisabled users that transforms barriers to access into artistic expression. In doing so, we outline a metaverse future that centers disabled expression and joy.

Leonardo is not published in a vacuum. Every time I have tried to finish this editorial, it seemed that all hell would break loose in the world, leaving me reeling and rendering all words inadequate, feeble, if not futile. Like many, I struggle to see clearly through and past the barrage of excruciating images, overwhelming disasters, and seemingly intractable crises that saturate newsfeeds. Amid escalating wars and unspeakable atrocities, acts of human kindness are those that most sustain humanity. Whether such actions are small or large, reflexive or unexpected, they are all courageous, all vital. These are the actions to embrace today. We aspire to embody such integrity throughout Leonardo, as we echo the call that “in a place where there is no humanity, strive to be human” [1]. Leonardo affirms the essential humanity of humankind across, within, and despite all borders, through creativity. According to Albert Einstein, “Imagination is more important than knowledge” [2]. Leonardo invites imaginative, creative inquiry and practice as a corridor of hope, offering safe passage and sanctuary for a species imperiled by fear. Hope is the ultimate antidote and inoculation against fear.
