Issue #264 - Mu

Ollo!

While we slowly melt in the heat here in Cambridge, the internet has been aflutter with amazing projects and news, such as synesthiser, the accessible musical instrument, and the announcement of the 2018–19 European Astro Pi Challenge.

So sit back, grab a nice cold beverage, and enjoy the wares of this week’s Raspberry Pi Weekly.

Peace,

Alex
