1. State of the art, project management and documentation#
This week I worked on defining my final project idea and started to getting used to the documentation process.
Me and GitLab#
After initial difficulties in creating links and uploading images, I got into GitLab and I am now busy trying to document my weekly work at the Fabricademy.
Ideas and Comments#
To further define my initial ideas for the final project, I researched the World Wide Web. First, I looked at existing projects that interest me in terms of content. I would like to deal with textiles that have a certain additional function and are therefore either helpful, practical or just fancy.
