Abstract:

Sonic Pi is a code-based music creation and performance tool written in Ruby, and packaged for use on the Raspberry Pi or desktop. It is a powerful tool for computer-generated music, while also being accessible enough for a novice to play and learn (both music and coding). I'll introduce this fun, engaging software, its community, and demonstrate its use.

Join us to learn how Sonic Pi works and how it can be used and implemented.

Getting to the meeting:

The April 2021 General meeting of UniForum Chicago (time as described with the meeting's title above) will NOT be at a physical location, but will be a virtual on-line meeting using a planned Zoom meeting for which the Zoom URL for connecting to the meeting will be emailed to those that RSVP'd Yes on Meetup.com for this meeting at least one hour before the start of the meeting (That means RSVPing Yes by 5pm-ish for the meeting to officially start at 6:30pm).

There will NOT be a in-person Meeting after the Meeting planned for this presentation, due to the State of Illinois Covid-19 virus direction for Social Distancing for groups. However expect there to be time after the presentation for a virtual Meeting After the Meeting.
