+**Hello dear _GitLabers_**
+
+
+It’s my first time using Markdown, so I 
+* would like to use ~~all~~ the existing features. 
+```javascript
+var s = " At the same time, I can make example about how new technology interacts with content.”;
+
+alert(s);
+``` 
+
+My name is Patrick and I am very glad and excited to be a part of the course. I think I am here to [**go beyond**](https://tenor.com/search/cat-computer-gifsm) Microsoft Word on my computer and reflect on this kind of transgression.
+
+Beside discussing the theoretical aspects like the interaction of content and technology in general, I would be very happy in particular to talk about text mining software (such as [Voyant](https://voyant-tools.org/) ). 
+* what software is suitable if I would like to analyze large text-corpuses?
+* why should such kind of software be interesting for historians
+* what are the epistemological (hermeneutic!!) impacts/differences?
+* and so on..
+
+I have already worked with [Transkribus](https://transkribus.eu/Transkribus/), a software that goes sort of into this direction. But I am especially interested in how to master and analyze huge amounts of text. I know that [one of my fellow students](https://gitlab.uzh.ch/ricardo.stalder) has already some experience with software like this and it would be interesting to discuss perspectives for historians.
+
+As for two of my current main-interests:
+
+| Interest 1        | Interest 2           
+| ------------- |:-------------:|
+| Science studies      | Persian language and Iranian cultures |
+
+It would be so nice to combine these two things one day, so I hope I can use at least one of these two topics for my project in this course. We will see if that works out.
