Whohoo! Now we have videos of over half a million signs available on Spreadthesign. A fantastic figure, but it has taken us 15 years to gather and document together with our partners scattered around the world.

We have had help in the studio to expand the Japanese sign language in Spread the sign. Akira and Natasu-san are used to work with us.

Two actors from Chile, Juan and Nicolás, have spent a week in the studio documenting the Chilean sign language. Coming soon on Spreadthesign.com.

Our content with signs from America is increasing with contributions from Mexico. A team from the University of Colima has been working in the studio for over a week.

With special permission we were able to take drone pictures around the hospital in Örebro. Our photographer Mikael Sundberg managed to get really nice morning photos in 360 format that we will have on Spreadthesign and its 360 function.

We have a visit to the studio of two actors from Argentina. Florencia and Juan worked very hard and professionally to reach the goal of more than 15,000 words / characters for our dictionary design spreadsheet.

We have guests in the studio of actors who know the Syrian sign language. Fadi and Ehsan are working on our Arabic translations in the promoter. Good work!

Big meeting with 15 partner countries that came to Örebro, Europe´s sign language capital. The unique thing about Örebro is that the most widely used language, after spoken Swedish, is the Swedish sign language. In no other city in Sweden does the sign language have that position. Now we have a kick off meeting in a new Erasmus EU project about making 360
images into Spreadthesign.

We just had a final meeting in Doncaster, Uk. A lot of members of different team showed up and we had a great time. During 2 days we had a lot of discussions about our work.

Jillian from Texas visited us to help us record some new signs in ASL (American sign language). She was very professional and polite, and she made the work look real easy.
