This course is aimed at researchers who want to gain confidence in using R and tidyverse for data analysis and visualisation. Over three days, we’ll cover data wrangling, plotting with ggplot2, and creating reproducible reports with Quarto.

@wendigo Not an Opeth fan, but seeing Absolute Elsewhere second I'm trying The Last Will and Testament. Still not a big fan, but I just had the silly insight that Opeth was The Alan Parsons Project but metal. Makes it more listenable now :D

@jake4480 @wendigo For some reason, this makes me thing of south-east asian psychedelic rock from the 70s. Who knows, brains make connections. Its what they do no? Except when they don't of course. They can also oscillate between those states. Sometimes, we even just type words into these little boxes because we don't feel like working too much. o_O

@carlosefr Looks awesome. Do you have names to go with that nice map? I recognize only a few and some of the others are intriguing. Otherwise, can you recommend some links?
