    *This blog originally posted on Think.Innovate. See the original post here. 

    Making music almost always involves putting hands to strings or brass or keys. We sit at the piano and play chopsticks or pick up a guitar and strum the G cord as easily as grabbing a fork to eat. But how can those who struggle with something like using utensils at the dinner table make their own music?

    The answer to that question is what inspired…
