Abstract: We investigate the uses of social medias by disabled musicians/musicians with disabilities. Viewing social medias as potential assistive technologies, we discuss SignSnap, Bandhub, and Facebook and discuss how these platforms are used by disabled/musicians/musicians with disabilities to connect with others and generate content. We also critically examine how generated content is read/heard and may be (mis)represented and (mis)appropriated by nondisabled audiences through the critical case of the video of Julia Maritza Ceja. This case, analyzed through the application of theories of disability develop in disability studies literature, examines the ease by which content generated by disabled musicians/musicians with disabilities can become problematic through what we can “inspiration pornification.” We conclude by noting both the positive and problematic potentials of social median in the music learning and music making of disabled musicians/musicians with disabilities.
