"The key to the Cipherscore project is that of communication. In the same way
that a cipher key unlocks encoded messages,the CipherScore program affords
individuals who are seriously compromised by disability a channel of communication
they have heretofore never experienced."

Both the desire and need to communicate and be understood is paramount in
human existence and yet for some, this desire is never satisfied,as they have no
means of communicating their thoughts and emotions. The students selected for
this projected suffer from extreme physical disability and lack the dexterity
to interface with typical technologies designed for the disabled.
The idea of the project was to adapt the Hyperscore music composition application
such that it is accessible to them

The Hyperscore program was created by Egon Pasztor and Mary Farbood,
@ MIT MediaLab, Boston.
