Programming as Performance: Live Coding with Sonic Pi - Sam Aaron
Ғылым және технология
From OSCON 2015 in Amsterdam: Live coding - writing code in real time in front of an audience - has recently emerged as an expressive way of performing music.
Could live coding also increase engagement in programming lessons within schools? Should we be teaching functions and variables or basslines, riffs and live loops?
In this keynote Sam will introduce and perform with Sonic Pi, a live coding synth available for free to use on all major platorms including the Raspberry Pi. He will discuss how it has created a huge impact with educators in addition to artists and programmers interested in exploring the creative potential of code. Finally Sam will also offer a window into the Algorave movement: parties where live coded algorithms meet the dance floor.
About Sam Aaron (University of Cambridge):
Sam is a live coder who strongly believes in the importance of emphasising, exploring and celebrating creativity within all aspects of programming. He is the lead developer of Overtone and the creator of Sonic Pi, a music live coding environment used to teach programming within schools. By day Sam is a Postdoc Research Associate at the University of Cambridge Computer Laboratory and by night he codes music for people to dance to.

This is something very very amazing
Creating music with programming is fun. When I learned 'sound()' in c, I played some frequencies, Created my piano & showed it to others (with 26 keys), Created c apps with frequency tools like repeater of a specific note... People understand language of music!!! Happy coding.
wow that honestly looks really intuitive, this could be really huge for collaboration.
Demo starts at 5:42
Awesome..I had no idea!
Numbers go up and they go down. Fantastic.
Loving it
really cool!
This is so cool (:
love the shirt, where did you get it?
"give binary a chance" is great album title
I met this guy
👏🏾
rl rank?
It's very frustrating, because there a so many programs out there doing exactly the same thing. I wish Sam good luck, but to be honest researchers would be better refining existing programs. Examples: Supercollider, Pure Data, CSound, ixiLang, Andrew Sorensen's system (forgotten the name), etc. Secondly, why have a system like this when you have DAWs, apart from the coding aspect? I'm glad Sam has made this, as I'll be having much fun, but please - Researchers - try to work together, it might be a little bit more productive, rather than just adding to the list of already brilliant (and free) music coding systems.

Thanks for the reply. I'm glad to see Sonic Pi uses SC, so does Ixi lang, in fact they look fairly similar.
If you could only let us listen to music first and then blabber about it, that would be great. Great job btw.

Yeah he went on for way too long after the beeps. Should've flexed the full song, then gone from scratch.
Crap
