Hi, I'm Sam Aaron and I'm the creator and lead developer of Sonic Pi and Tau5 - code-based music creation and performance tools.
Sonic Pi is free, open source and used by over 1.5 million people around the world: https://sonic-pi.net
It has been used in schools to teach computer science and music as well as in universities as part of music tech courses.
It's also a new musical instrument that allows you to turn code in to music. By writing code live you can perform like a DJ. This is called live coding.
Sonic Pi has featured in The Rolling Stone magazine, has been awarded a Google prize, was used to teach 2000 African children as part of Code Bus Africa and was used to perform alongside 1000 children in the Royal Albert Hall in 2019.
Sonic Pi is entirely free, open source and is available for Mac, Windows and Linux. It even runs on a Raspberry Pi.
Tau5 is new experimental live coding software and is a playground for new ideas - you can read more about it here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/136095977
I need your help to continue working on Sonic Pi and Tau5 to ensure they stays healthy, works for everyone and so I can finish all the exciting things I have planned such as:
A code sharing platform
Collaborative jamming (live coding orchestras)
Distributed performances (stream your live coded performance around the world)
Projects (so you can manage multiple compositions/performances)
and much more....
