[opensuse-conference] OSC12: Abstract Sam Aaron, OverTone/Clojure Liveprogramming
This is the talk that Sam will give in the Future Media track. It is the technology behind his performance that he will give at the party. BIO Sam Aaron is a researcher at the intersection of Computing Science and Music at Cambridge University. " Zen and the art of Live Programming with Clojure Clojure's interactive features provide programmers with a remarkable ability to create software with a unique and highly responsive development process. This can be seen to broadly similar to the differences between the waterfall model and more recent agile approaches yet at an different timescale - that of moments vs minutes, rather than days vs weeks. Programming with an approach which allows one moment to flow frictionlessly to another without having to wait for compile cycles gives the developer a unique workflow which will be examined in detail in this session. We will cover the art of Live Programming with Clojure, including elements such as interactive editors, REPL sessions, realtime visuals and sound, live documentation and on-the-fly-compilation whilst repeatedly demonstrating that these techniques aren't just useful for artistic endeavours but also a powerful and persuasive technique to be applied in industrial contexts.
