Jon Witts has been working in the IT industry since 2002, specifically in educational IT since 2004. He was introduced to Linux back in 2001 through his collaboration with two German artists who were visiting the arts organisation he was then working with. Having studied fine arts and educational technology, he sought to innovate with open and accessible digital technologies within his creative practice and is happiest when deconstructing technology and finding its limits.
Jon has embedded the use of Raspberry Pi computers in his school as an integral part of the delivery of the computer science curriculum, as well as to run various school clubs and projects. Jon is a Raspberry Pi Certified Educator and also helps to organize and run the Hull Raspberry Jam events.
I would like to thank my wife, Sally, and our three daughters for putting up with all the cables and components around the house, and not least for being so tolerant of the need to dodge the robots racing around the kitchen floor!
