Laura Silvanavičiūtė - Rock n Roll with Code

We are very used to generating visual results with code but are still often surprised to hear that we can create music in the same way.

Oh, you didn’t know that? You are not alone. Even though the idea of music programming is definitely older than all of us this concept is still pretty unfamiliar among many developers. Not for long! Let's shed some light on Sonic Pi and JavaScript capabilities of live music coding as well as music integration into our web applications with Web Audio API.

Our speaker:

Laura Silvanavičiūtė:

Laura Silvanavičiūtė is a 24 years old software engineer obsessed with front-end development. Simultaneously she teaches Web Development for teenagers at CodeAcademyKids school. 2 years ago she was on the Dark side - developing on Mainframe supercomputers with COBOL language, but due to limitations and slow evolvement of used technologies, she decided to shift them pretty drastically.

In general, she think we should not need to stick to any specific technology in this rapidly progressing IT World but rather try and use various different ones. Every new experience increases our creativity, knowledge, curiosity and expands mindset. Her latest discovery which she found to be super fun & still beneficial is Music Programming and she wants to share this one!
