Tor ☛ Celebrating the next generation of software tinkerers: interview with Matthias Kirschner from FSFE
Today is "I love Free Software Day" a special day of appreciation to all the contributors to free software projects, large or small, and to show some love to those who advocate for free software. This year's theme is "Forging the future with Free Software" to engage younger generations, i.e. those who play a big part in shaping the future of free software. That's why we're putting a spotlight on one of those projects that aims to do exactly that: the children's book Ada & Zangemann -- A Tale of Software, Skateboards, and Raspberry Ice Cream by Matthias Kirschner with illustrations from Sandra Brandstätter.
The story follows a young hardware tinkerer Ada on her quest to take on Zangemann, an inventor who began controlling all of the world's computerized devices to do exactly what he wants. She learns that the power of computer code can set her and children everywhere free from the villainous inventor's selfish plan. Through clever experiments with hardware and software, Ada and her friends show the world how important it is to be able to have control over the everyday technologies we use. Suited for readers ages 6 to 106, the book is designed to peak children's interest in engaging with hardware and software, and to encourage their desire to shape their own technology.
