GNU/LINUX FOR THE ARTIST, a talk by Venkatesh Prabhu nothingsmine at gmail.com : An informal talk on the different softwares used by DTP people and artists on the Windows platform, alternatives on the GNU/Linux platform and the roadmap of moving from Windows to Linux. SUGAR ON ANDROID, by Dr Anil Seth seth.anil at gmail.com. Sugar is a free and open source computer desktop environment designed for interactive learning by children. Developed as part of the One Laptop per Child (OLPC) project, Sugar was the default interface on OLPC XO-1 laptop computers. The OLPC XO-1.5 and later provided the option of either the Gnome or Sugar interfaces. Sugar is available as a Live CD, as Live USB, a package installable through several GNU/Linux distributions. It can run in a GNU/Linux virtual machine under Windows and Mac OS. Unlike most other desktop environments, Sugar does not use the "desktop", "folder" and "window" metaphors. Instead, Sugar's default full-screen activities require users to focus on only one program at a time. Sugar implements a journal which automatically saves the user's running program session and allows them to later use an interface to pull up their past works by date, activity used, or file type.
