The website should keep working when ordinary interaction becomes hard.

The project grew from the change between being able to type, handwrite, navigate, install, organize, and explain with familiar ease and then having fine-motor changes make typing and handwriting painful and sometimes unreliable. Speech, stamina, navigation, and ordinary computer steps can also change.

Changing access does not erase the person’s knowledge, identity, intent, or right to participate. The page should reduce the work required to reach the meaning.

The floating A+ button opens read-aloud, speed, text size, spacing, contrast, image visibility, language, search, and page-top controls.

Closing the panel does not stop reading. Home/top stays on the current language page and returns the reading position to the beginning.

One-key advance is available across every page and begins turned on. When focus is not inside a link, button, form field, menu, or accessibility panel, one letter or number, Space, Enter, the down or right arrow, or Page Down moves to the next main reading section.

The current section receives a strong visible outline and a screen-reader announcement. The A+ panel can turn one-key advance off or on, and it also includes an “Advance now” button. This keeps ordinary controls, text entry, Tab navigation, and screen-reader interaction from being taken over.

Joseph W. Korzen created and directs Project Fionigan. The website’s reading paths, document relationships, public-redacted library, accessible explanations, email support, corrections, and continuing additions are part of the framework being used to preserve meaning when typing or handwriting can cause pain.

AI may assist with access and organization inside this human-directed process, but AI is not Project Fionigan and did not create it. Joe remains the source of the lived knowledge, direction, correction, approval, and final decisions.

Read-aloud highlights the active paragraph and, where the browser supports it, the current spoken word. The page follows the reader without taking away ordinary scrolling.

Pause keeps the reading session active. Stop ends it and clears the highlight.

Meaningful images receive concise alternative text and a longer visible description. Posters and document images are broken into readable sections so the information is not trapped inside the pixels.

The English image remains the governing visual source. Translated descriptions can make its structure and meaning available without altering the original picture.

Documents, screenshots, photographs, audio, video, websites, ZIP files, sub-ZIPs, and every derivative receive a governed description.

If the physical bytes are missing, the text record remains, clearly marked as a description rather than a substitute for the original.

The layout uses visible focus states, semantic headings, labeled controls, a skip link, large touch targets, responsive spacing, and no essential information that depends only on color.
