Theory

Got some insights into the history of computation, free software, proprietary software. Was quite amazed to learn how powerful CLI tools can be.

Practice

I learned how to use the terminal more effectively, work with bash scripts, use tools such as ffmpeg, imagemagick, git. Learned how to set up a Raspberry pi and play around with it. I switched to a dual boot operating system so I can learn more about Linux distributions.

I created an animation using tools such as ffmpeg, espeak, melt and some python and shell scripts written by someone else (Spell and Speak)

I applied this knowledge into developing my own project, which involves creating flipbooks out of short video sequences (work in progress). ==
