Sonic Pi - Live Coding as a tool for next-gen education.
Sonic Pi is a free code-based music creation and performance tool that targets both education and professional musicians. It is possible for beginners to code fresh beats, driving bass lines and shimmering synth riffs. All this whilst teaching core computer science concepts such as sequencing, functions, variables, loops, data structures and algorithms.
This talk will briefly introduce Sonic Pi before taking a deep technical nose-dive into some of the interesting requirements of live coding.
