Sean Forbes is a musician on a mission. An accomplished and passionate drummer, rhythm pours out of him, when he breathes, walks, types at his keyboard or hits his drums. Music is in his blood, his cells; it's just the way he is.
He's also deaf -- and out to build a badly needed bridge between the music industry and deaf people everywhere.Sean grew up in Detroit where his parents, both musicians, filled their home with the sounds of the Motor City: Mitch Ryder, Bob Seger, the Funk Brothers and more. Despite losing his hearing as a baby, Sean soaked up the beats and the vibrations, experiencing great music in his own way.

I'm excited about the future of AI and American Sign Language. It was an honor to be asked by @Google to announce a $200,000 contest from @kaggle to advance sign language recognition using @TensorFlow & @MediaPipe!
My favorite thing about this is that this is open-sourced... meaning that it will be free for all to use!

I'm thrilled to share a show I produced with Mr.Deaf Entertainer @jmaucere. In this first episode we got Marlee Matlin in the front seat to tell us her favorite recipe... you'll be shocked at what it is.
