Hmm, well, what you're doing right now might actually be the best
path.

My personal path is that 17y ago after yet another blue screen of
death I decided to look elsewhere and purchased a linux distro with an
introductory booklet. I was using my home PC mostly for music
production (perhaps like you), so I started compiling/installing any
free and open source music software I could find. From this alone I
learned a lot.

Go through some linux walkthrough (start by learning why the OS
directory tree is the way it is). Then find softwares that you'd love
to use, compile them, look at the code, etc. There's still of lot of
music softwares that do not have precompiled packages BTW, from
experimental LV2 plug-ins, to obscure DAWs like Protrekkr, etc, they
are many many.

Thanks Linas. You are really great.

        Again, I'm not clear on what you hope to accomplish -- the
        questions you are asking have relatively straight-forward
        answers, which you can discover on your own.  Think of them as
        hurdles, and if you stay on the technical path, that path ahead
        will have many more of them, each harder than the last. I can't
        particularly think of non-technical tasks -- opencog does need
        ombudsmen and cheer-leaders and promoters and helpers of all
        kinds, but even those will require at least some bsic
        understanding of what's in here, how it works, and how stuff
        fits together.

                Well, you need to install cogutil.  From here:
                https://github.com/opencog/cogutil
                <https://github.com/opencog/cogutil>  Be sure to read
                the README's and instructions.

                 > Ready to take some direction.

                For people who wish to do programming, going through he
                bug-list and picking "easy to fix" bugs is a good start.

                For people who just want to learn about the system, then
                going through the wiki, and the tutorials here:
                https://github.com/opencog/atomspace/tree/master/examples 
<https://github.com/opencog/atomspace/tree/master/examples>
                is a good place to start.

                Maybe it would be really cool to create Jupyter
                notebooks for each of the tutorials.  That would be
                pretty cool!
