For #printerSolstice2526 prompt division here is my #linocut portrait of Agnes Pockels (1862-1935), the self-taught scientist who pioneered surface science.

As a woman she did not get the chance to go to university & study physics like her theoretical physicist brother Friedrich, who discovered the Pockels effect. So at 18 she took her "passionate interest for natural science" to her household chores &

My Lino block portrait of Agnes Pockels holding her pen and notebook by her trough (which was 70 cm by 5 cm and 2 cm deep, with a ruler along its length and a sliding divider). There is a button attached to an apothecary scale in the through so she can measure surface tension. She has her hair up and wears a dress and a cross on a necklace. She is surrounded by soap bubbles and you can see text in reverse for the Pockels point, 20 angstroms squared. She is in a gradient of dark forest green to lime from the base of the print upwards. The text, bubbles, and swirling patterns in the soap film in the front of her through are in pale pinkish purple.

Yoo any non-dudes build #synths and #sequencers from scratch? It's always Bread Week in this house 🍞 🔌 This is an 8-step sequencer, the row of potentiometers across the bottom #modulate the pitch.

I love and appreciate community events such as #Fosdem, but it makes me sad to see the gender imbalance in #foss tech. I'm aware of the issue, but being at such a large-scale event makes it very tangible and visible.
