Uncanny Accommodation

Dale Katherine Ireland coined the term uncanny accommodation to describe accommodations that should work from a conventional non-disabled point of view but do not work. Uncanny accommodations help show the separation between non-disabled knowledge of access and crip spacetime, since in crip spacetime rather than access being garaunteed before hand through a single accommodation it becomes a web of interactions between access, relations, space, and objects.
