This is a very brief post to introduce this new blog section. Here one can view the inner workings of this website and also the process and the 'backstage' of the articles and other featured projects.

It is largely a personal project of the author with the additional and very valuable help of some friends. The website evolved mostly in steps rather than gradually and in the next weeks we are preparing an extensive update.
