Command lines & Raspberry Pis

• First time ever working with command lines, shell scripts and the Raspberry Pi.
• First bash script (using python scripts, ffmpeg, spell and speak)
• Experiment with interaction in scripts [File:Echo_convo.webm]
• Better understanding of networks, servers & programming languages.
• How to use Git repositories.

Going forward

• Would love to push my technical skills in the next trimester. This means more coding, python, publishing on different servers, research on networks, but also experiments with hardware. These are all practices I don't have much experience with.
• Algorithmic curation & generative content is a growing interest for me. How can I experiment more with the relationship between content - design - system?
• Also: In a publication, where is the border between reader & writer? Wikis are all about collaborative content; they are also 'platforms with attitudes'. How does software influence behaviour? Politics of 'seamlessness'?
• For later: editorial design for the future > what's next for print, what's next for e-books and digital magazines?
