- How do we engage the next generation of programmers? Is it through sorting algorithms and binary arithmetic - or might there be a different approach? Could it be possible to learn the fundamentals of programming whilst also becoming a DJ from the future?
This talk introduces Sonic Pi, 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. Code has never sounded so good!

Thank you Sam Aaron! 😆
Want to attract my students to code. I use Python coding in my classes but need something more dynamic. Or maybe I’m boring 😂
I don't know what my problem is. But my Macbook Pro from mid 2015 does not play the songs well. Neither in latest macOS nor in Windows 10
