100 boxes made! Paper engineering and flat pack resource boxes ready to go. All the files will be made available on our website at warwick.ac.uk/wmgoutreach/re… once we've got these posted out. Merry Christmas (I know it's early!) From #WMGoutreach!

Earlier this year I programmed Clive Richards 100 cubes in @TurtleStitch. He created it in 1973 using a line plotter: collections.vam.ac.uk/item/O… The code and stitched example are here: turtlestitch.org/users/megjl… #ComputerArt #TurtleStitch #creativecomputing
100 small cubes stitched in white thread on black felt in skeleton form. The cubes are arranged in 10 rows of cubes and 10 columns of cubes. Each cube is rotated 10 degrees from its neighbour, which creates a pleasing overall effect.

Another month, and another significant drop in Patreon support and no upcoming talks/workshops/performances in the calendar. It’s hard to imagine a change of fortune in this current financial climate. Please consider supporting my ongoing @Sonic_Pi work if you can. – at Yorkshire and The Humber, England

With some blocks in the geometry library of TurtleStitch it's so easy to make designs for cardstock cutting and output as dxf files. Children made these triangular pyramids this afternoon. #turtlestitch

If you’re in NYC this Saturday, this is definitely worth your time. The space looks amazing (huge LED screens) and the New York live coding scene has so many talented and wonderful performers. One day I’ll make it to one of these shows… – at Yorkshire and The Humber, England

“if you give extra feedback to school kids on their ability in maths - in short, just tell the girls they really are good at the subject - it not only has a huge impact on their confidence, it also more than halves the gender gap once those students get to degree level. Halves!”

A little piece I wrote for today’s i newspaper about why - I think - you don’t see more girls doing maths. In short: it’s death by a thousand cuts. inews.co.uk/opinion/hannah-f…
