ABSTRACT
In this chapter, Zoe Moores describes her research into how a particular form of live subtitling, called respeaking – where subtitles are created by a person in real-time using speech recognition software – can be used to make live events more accessible and a series of public engagement events that took place in the course of carrying that research out. Public engagement formed an integral part of this project. Not only were the research events Zoe ran public engagement activities, but the entire research design was created in such a way as to embed the practice and values of public engagement into the work from the outset. This chapter summarises how this was done.
