Lainey Feingold: When I try to introduce you to people who don’t know you or I tell someone “oh I have this friend Josh Miele” I always feel like I’m missing something in the description of who you are because, you know just on the work side there’s so many different things you do. Do I say you’re a scientist, or do I say you’re a researcher, an inventor, an investigator, so how do you think of yourself? How do you describe what you do?

Joshua Miele: What I have engaged with for my entire professional life really is figuring out how to give blind people, myself included obviously because I’m blind, but how to make information available that is necessary to do the things that we want to do.
You know I remember seeing the Red Balloon in second grade. To this day I think it’s the dumbest movie ever, right? But that’s because I’m blind and the only thing I heard through the entire video movie was “balloon, balloon” and it’s like that’s the only line in the whole damn movie.
