BrailleSpeak
Plays a series of pitches converted from a serial input string.
Each character of the input is mapped through an array that converts it to braille pairs (left-hand / right-hand of a braille character), then to binary pairs, then to decimal pairs.
Each of the decimal pairs is then mapped to the equivelant note. That note is then output by the speaker.
