invited for scribus
scribus: dtp software
traditional approche to visual design
we were interested to show another aspect of it
scripting capabilities: you can control the whole programm with commands.
opens up new possibilities for design:
generative design:
- creating a newspaper (semi-)automatically from RSS feeds
