Recently ‘Linus Tech Tips’ shared a
video explaining how
you can help find a cure for COVID-19. This video inspired us to dig deeper into this platform called
Folding@home
which is not only COVID-19 related, but is a project focused on disease research. The problems they’re solving require so many computer
calculations. It enables every company or individual to participate and ‘Donate CPU’.

These times are not easy, but we do our best to get the most out of it and keep connected with each other. For example, we are organising ‘Daily
Shares’ on Slack with different topics. One day our thread is filled with furry DPDK pet photos and the other day it’s filled with photo’s of our
favorite mugs. Stay safe and keep it fun! 😊
Read how we adapt and learn from the changing times in the interview with Pim in Fonk Magazine. Check it in Fonk issue #283 on page 43-45.

This newsletter is all about line art since this is a huge design trend in 2020. Outline typography and elements have been quite mass during 2018
and 2019, now it’s time to evolve into fully illustrated and animated line art patterns and designs. In its essence, line art is a schematic,
simplified illustration style. As such, it is great for conveying concepts and ideas. It looks clean, elegant, and unobtrusive. Scroll down to see
some related inspiration.

Meet
Ruby Chang, our new motion designer intern. Currently she is studying at Rotterdam University of Applied Sciences. In her free time she loves travelling and
cooking asian food. By watching Miffy and Friends she is learning how to speak Dutch so she can add another language to the collection. Oh yeah,
this girl speaks English, Chinese and Japanese. ;-) Ruby is responsible for designing and animating this newsletter, cool huh? She did a very good
job and we are happy to have her on board.

This is
Jasper Vermeulen, our new project consultant intern. He is chosen to partake in the Erasmus Honours programme. Nerd alert! No, but seriously, we think that he is a
valuable addition to the DPDK team because he grew up with communication technologies and is able to provide new and innovative insights. In his
free time he is obsessed with football. Watching his favourite team or playing the beautiful game himself. As far as we are concerned, he is a
keeper.
