what do I want this to be? What is this for me?
- The ultimite way of self expression. This everything journal. With endless possibilities to structure, to create, to combine, to present. I can change things without leaving rubber marks.
- A portfolio containing everything I do, my flaws and my accomplishments.
- A way to keep track of myself. Of what I do, of what I would like to do, of what I already did. As a way to visualize where I am headed and where I came from.
- Finally, I want to prove, to myself and others, that coding is actually fun and a skill obtainable. It is nothing more and nothing less than a tool. It can be used for self expression, for art, for science, for war. It is a language like any other. It can create worlds like any other. It shapes the world around us maybe more than any other. It surrounds us, eventhough we cannot hear it, mostly we can not read it. We only see it's outcomes. We live in the world it creates but are afraid to speak it. Afraid to touch ist. We are afraid its grammar is to difficult, its vocabulary to vast, its realm not for our brains to understand and we leave it to the tech bros. We leave the creation of our lived reality to a bunch of nerds that somehow convinced us that this is too hard to understand, or, that it is boring, or that it is not relevant to us. That being bad at math in middle school means you should never dare to look at computer science and with first semester math they scare the last of the bold ones away. And I want to change that. From the bottom of my heart I want to change this because... what does that leads us to?
