417: I Don't Know How My Brain Works

Alexandra Covor spoke with us about engineering, making, drawing, school, and what it means to be an artist.

Alex's projects are on GitHub and Hackster.io. Her electronics comics can be found as PikaComics on Instagram.

The 2022 Open Hardware Summit named Alex as part of the Ada Lovelace Fellowship. Her favorite talk from the summit was Anuradha Reddy talking about Knotty (Naughty) Hardware.

Alex works for Zalmotek, a design services firm in Bucharest. We talked about Waylay.io, including their smart pet feeder built on that platform. For example projects for Edge Impulse, they built a tools organizer that uses ML.
