503: The Tiniest Laptops

Emily Lovell spoke with us about teaching how to contribute to open source, including her own experience creating the LilyTiny as a Master's student and researching the impact as a PhD student.

The LilyTiny work was done in conjunction with Leah Buechley (Embedded episode 382). See the paper The LilyTiny: A Case Study in Expanding Access to Electronic Textiles or watch the video.

UCSC Open Source Program Office (note this is different from the Center for Research in Open Source Software (CROSS) that we spoke about with Carl Maltzahn (Episode 285).

Emily recommended the curriculum from TeachingOpenSource.org.

Emily's other life is at EP Custom Pickups and Aberdeen Guitars. She spoke on a lutherie panel at NAMM.
