Short Definition
Access Magic is a concept that reimagines accessibility as more than just a set of regulations or accommodations. It involves creating spaces—whether digital or physical—where access is embedded into the experience in a fluid, relational, and intentional way. It treats access as an ongoing, joyful, and communal process, rather than a compliance task. Coined by Kevin Gotkin (https://www.notion.so/Kevin-Gotkin-11d88d95c73780249924e2068b77739c?pvs=21), access magic emphasizes the collaborative, care-driven approach to access that transforms spaces into supportive environments, making access feel like a shared, magical practice rather than a burden.
