='''WHAT HAVE I DONE?'''=

'''Special Issue'''
*Understanding pirate libraries and the ecosystem around them
*Deeper inside view into monoskope + memory of the world


'''Software'''

='''WHAT HAVE I LEARNED?'''=

*'''Basics into Comma separated catalogues / JavaScript / HTML / CSS / ThreeJS'''
**Shifting the role from a classical designer into a more developer - explorer role
**A lot of people have good ideas, but the question is the execution - this is the key for a successful project
**If you want to work in the computational field - you need to become an expert in it (understanding the way of thinking and executing in code)
**IDEAS + KNOWLEDGE (SKILLS) = EXPERT IN THE FIELD
**Your portfolio is your  → main project  → your businesscard
**If you want to propose a project idea come already with a halfway working mockup / prototype and not with a vague idea
**Make only concepts that you can execute yourself
**Using reddit, internet console, GitHub and stack overflow for help in debugging


*'''Concept'''
**Data visualisation system thinking exploration (which data will be translated and how – this is a key of a successful data visualisation project)
**Trust your first intuition during the conceptualisation phase of the project
**Better time planning (calendar) of the project - to do lists


='''WHAT DID I ACHIEVED FROM MY 1ST + 2ND TRIMESTER WISHLIST?'''=

*the way of thinking in code
*creating dynamic and hybrid systems (XPPL Volumetric Catalogue - my first website)
*wiki structure to use for documenting the process 
*learned the basics of JavaScript
*exploration of ThreeJs library
*found also ways how to connect with my work (WebGL, ThreeJs)
*Investigating a research into steganography / abusing file formats and creating a project with it


='''WHERE DO I WANT TO GO?'''=

*Investigation into Makefiles
*Investigation into Git
*Investigating a research into steganography / abusing file formats and creating a project with it in Python
*doing a project with Pi
*learning more how to think in code and realise my ideas
*developing further my Python3 skills
*diving into Python – DrawBot, Python – Cinema4D, Python – Blender
*diving into Touchdesigner in combination of Python
* diving into Openframes
* learning more about Wiki (+styling of it)
* open shaders
* vvvv
* open GL
*pure data
*p5.js


='''WHY?'''=

* graduation project next year →  live generated 3D environments  ↔ audio visualisation (sound = data  → data visualisation)
* creative coding, light - space installations, audiovisual performances delivered from a strong conceptual and technical (software - creative coding) foundation
