Outline
In this lab you will:
- reflect on the goals you set for your artefact or performance design
- discuss your artefact with instructors in its current state
- explore and potentially implement some variations to your project
Introduction
Welcome back creative coders! It’s another week of working on your project. As we mentioned last week, the class will turn into a studio space where you come along and work on your project and seek feedback on your work. As a consequence, there will be less structured material in the lab web pages until Portfolio Item 2.
Do: If you haven’t already, Fork and Clone the portfolio repo for your project. Remember to stage, commit and push to GitLab at the end of the lesson.
Markdown is a lightweight markup language. It uses symbols and line structure to impart semantic meaning to parts of a file. Markdown is automatically rendered by gitlab. Advanced styling is possible, and there are many resources to learn Markdown. We will start with the basics. Your teacher will give a demonstration. Feel free to ask if you have specific questions.
Document your experiments, decisions, alternative implementations, challenges into the markdown file portfolio-entry-2.md
Try out some formatting. You may wish to include an image (put the image in your assets folder).
You can make multiple copies of portfolio-entry-2.md - just increment the numbers for each file.
You will see that there are several headings already in there. These headings are there to help you structure your portfolio documentation and, perhaps, interpret the theme from some different perspectives.
Summary
Congratulations! In this lab you:
- reflected on the goals you set for your artefact or performance
- discussed your artefact with instructors in its current state
- explored and potentially implemented some variations to your project
