This paper presents a systematic literature review of music technology tailored for blind and low vision (BLV) individuals.Music activities can be particularly beneficial for BLV people.However, a systematic approach to organizing knowledge on designing accessible technology for BLV people has yet to be attempted.We categorize the existing studies based on the type of technology and the extent of BLV people's involvement in the research.We identify six main categories of BLV people-oriented music technology and highlight four key trends in design goals.Based on these categories, we propose four general insights focusing on (1) spatial awareness, (2) access to information, (3) (non-verbal) communication, and (4) memory.The identified trends suggest that more empirical studies involving BLV people in real-world scenarios are needed to ensure that technological advancements can enhance musical experiences and social inclusion.This research proposes collaborative music technology and inclusive real-world testing with the target group as two key areas missing in current research.They serve as a foundational step in shifting the focus from "accessible technology" to "inclusive technology" for BLV individuals within the broader field of accessibility research.

Digital Commons have been widely studied in HCI and co-design literature as an alternative to technologies produced by capitalistic corporations. In this paper, we present an action-research process that facilitates the use of digital commons among a group of participants. The process core aspect is understanding our participants’ interests and values to present multiple off-the-shelf tools fitting their needs. In doing so, we leveraged on Artifact Ecologies, using them as an action-research tool. The process is articulated in three main phases: 1) we engaged participants in a reflection on their Artifact Ecologies, connecting the artifacts in use to their values; 2) we used these results to selected valuable digital commons; 3) we presented these tools to the group, connecting them to participants’ ecologies. At the end of the process, we performed a collective interview to evaluate the process alongside assessing the adoption of the proposed technologies. Based on our findings, we developed five tactics to foster digital commoning.
