Very much inspired by this site and the wonderful community that monome has built over the last (almost?) decade, I’ve decided to launch a new discourse site loosely centered around materials science: materialsGIRL. There is so much activity online openly discussing software, hardware, math, music, particle physics…why not chemistry? why not materials science?
There are currently only a few discussion topics, I want the structure and content to evolve with the interests of the users. Please take a peek, sign up if you’re interested, and join/start the discussion. I’m certain there will be overlapping interest between these communities, and more certain that I have no idea what it is. Don’t be shy, we’ve got one music app-related post already 
What is the proper modulus of a silicone monome grid button?
(PS: put this in Tech since I think it falls into the ‘DIY’ category. Happy to move to ‘uncategorized’ upon request)
