Dear EPICS community,
Although I unfortunately missed the last EPICS meeting at CEA this April due to an Achilles tendon rupture, I followed the event from afar and I am already looking forward to reconnecting with the community soon 😊
In the meantime, I wanted to share a new personal project I recently launched:
🎙️ “Katy In Control”
After years working between TANGO and EPICS environments, I wanted to create something that helps explain industrial control systems and SCADA architectures in a simpler and more accessible way — especially for younger engineers and newcomers entering our field.
So naturally… I started with Star Wars 😄
🎬 S1E01 — Understand SCADA, You Must
EPICS & TANGO Revealed
In this first episode:
🔧 Hardware
📡 Communication Bus
🧠 Business Logic
…explained through the architecture of a galaxy far, far away.
This project is also my way of helping bridge worlds:
- EPICS & TANGO
- IT & OT
- controls & software engineering
- experts & newcomers
May the uptime be with you 🚀

Very happy to already see encouraging reactions from members of the EPICS community 😊
Looking forward to seeing many of you again at future meetings and ICALEPCS.
Best regards,
