We should all show respect to the cameraman. Sam wasn't an easy target.

[@soulcastdj]

hahah true that

[@mariobroselli3642]

A moving target 😮

[@blueskyredkite]

22:50, that statement blew my mind. "We shouldn't be teaching them the same thing. We should be asking them what they want, individually..." What an educational concept. What a wonderful world that would be.

[@mmilerngruppe]

you still need at first a base there they can start understanding what they want.

[@pupdoggify]

@@mmilerngruppe I don't think you're giving enough credit to general observation as being the base. You'd be surprised what humans can do just by observing...let alone animals.

[@Scarabola]

This is one of the greatest pieces of art in the history of the universe.

[@densidad13]

Sam's on top of it. He engages such a wide *audience* with a clear *vision* : tecnology is culture and culture must be *free*

[@sempribo]

This is more then art!

[@permanentmagnet]

The most inspiring thing i have seen for a very long time.

[@rikwilliams2916]

Very impressive Sam. My eldest daughter mentioned SonicPi to me over breakfast when I was talking about coding with my kids. I’ve been trying to get them into coding games. I love this angle. It had my daughter engaged and now me too. Wonderful project Sam

[@munithach9897]

How was your kid now?

[@LunchBoxLazers]

I just discovered Sonic Pi today and I can safely say that I'm obsessed. This is so great for so many reasons. Truly revolutionary in the age of information. Love it.

The tool is awesome and the philosophy behind the talk is even more awesome.

[@Allomerus]

As a recently retired teacher this talk makes me wish I was still in the classroom using Sonic Pi. Inspirational!

[@jeffcarpenter7721]

thank you for your time and effort being a teacher

[@SeamusHarper1234]

I'm hosting a Sonic pi workshop next week and came here for some inspiration. I could listen to Sam Aaron for hours. Youve got so much passion going on, man. Awesome.

[@bensmith9253]

I love this guy

[@256k_]

I was already impressed with Sonic Pi but after watching Sam give talks and especially this one hearing his thoughts about education and programming it really resonated with me and i joined his sonic Pi Patreon. this is the first time i ever join Patreon but i believe this is for a very good cause...

[@minseokjeong1881]

Awesome, After seeing this video, I thought I better learn sonic pi for hobby :D

[@isosthenie8271]

One of the greatest tools for electronic music right now. If multi-channel recording per live_loop in a daw was possible, this would be the shit.

[@NineGG]

this is so coooool!

[@sophia.3023]

I've used Sonic Pi and I loved it. I want to say thank you so much to the people who made this, me and my family used this resource and we all created some music.

He is such a great standupper! :D I am smiling all the time.

[@electricharmonyac7354]

I want you to know youre awesome for bringing this to us. it merges two of my hobbies in one. Thankyou for all of your hard work.

[@sarvasvarora]

Software - perfect... Presentation - perfect... Energy and execution - perfect!! I'm so down for it ✨ gna try sonic pi soon

[@sefirotsama]

[@s1lverhand_]

35:36 so this is where cyberpunk 2077 music came from

[@20thCB]

This is fantastic and needs more views!

[@DJDiskmachine]

Such a brilliant tool for learning And making music and such an engaging speaker! Brilliant! =)

[@Tematrilia]
