  Blind and partially sighted audiences have limited access to conventional audiovisual materials. Images must be adapted into audio format in order to provide the user with enough information for the correct understanding and enjoyment of the plot. Audio description (AD) stands as the most popular way toovercome such barriers. However, what happens with subtitled materials? The response has been found in the use of audio subtitling (AST), which has been described as the intersection between subtitles, AD and voice-over. Despite the clear need for them, they have only been used regularly by a few countries on TV since the 90s. Although the main focus of attention has been put on the study of the technology used in the delivery of computer AST less has been said about human voiced AST, the actual reception of AST in fiction films and how AST has to be merged with AD and presented to the audience.This research is carried out within the framework of Audiovisual Translation Studies and Media Accessibility and it borrows knowledge from other fields such as psychology. It aims to shed a light on the impact on the audience of two different AST strategies: dubbing effect and voice-over effect. These two strategies for the delivery of AST will be compared in terms of emotional activation by making use of psychophysiological measures, which are able to measure physiological responses such as electrodermal activity or heart rate, in combination of self-report instruments and the study of preferences.

  World wi(l)de web translator and localiser

  World Wi(l)de Web is a browser video game which offers an alternative narrative and embodies the ideas of openness, accessibility, interaction and participation of the original Internet. The project is open to co-creation and places digital culture and its issues in the gaming sphere.The game is not only democratic and easily distributable, but it also fosters critical thinking among the next generation. In a playful way, it confronts the user with the inherent contradictions of the human being condition as well as the ideas of freedom of thought, freedom of speech and the consequences of our actions. It places digital culture outside the institution, brings discussion about on-line privacy and security to a global scale and is also potentially replicable and adaptable anywhere in the world.
