Campaign idea: Kesh found new ways to make music
Diagnosed with glaucoma in his twenties, Kesh rebuilt his life around callisthenics, adapted music and curious problem-solving.
This story
After growing up with extreme myopia, Kesh was diagnosed with glaucoma in his late twenties following debilitating migraines and seeing halos around lights. Over twenty-five years, he underwent multiple surgeries and procedures before having to give up driving and later registering as severely sight impaired. He adapted his life by using tactile controls to produce music, embracing bodyweight training, and using voice automations and a long cane.
