Drawing on 25 years of experience as a professional musician and record producer, this will be a beginner focused talk introducing the use of Scala.js and the web audio api for building Scala powered Web Audio Applications.
This talk follows on from my 2023 talk 'Sounds of Structure' where I discussed modelling music with ADT's, and will pick up from that by focusing more on playing Audio in the browser where I'll cover the following:
- The Web Audio application space.
- Wrapping a JavaScript music and audio library with Scala.js
- Building a Scala.js synthesizer from scratch
- Me pushing buttons on my computer and making a plethora of sounds (from the computer)
Join me for a fun and possibly opinionated talk about the state of Scala and other JVM languages.
This talk is my slightly expanded version of that statement, and should hopefully understand what "Free" is, what purpose it serves and where it came from.
In this talk, I will cover three key concepts that emerged from reflecting on this past year of learning: making mistakes, helping others to help you and finding community.
In this talk, we will demonstrate some elegant applications of functional programming in Scala, with even more elegant visual results - all with live code and real-time output.
