Functional Composition • Chris Ford • YOW! 2018

This presentation was recorded at YOW! 2018. #GOTOcon #YOW https://yowcon.com Chris Ford - Technical Principal at Thoughtworks RESOURCES https://x.com/ctford https://toot.thoughtworks.com/@cford https://www.linkedin.com/in/ctford https://github.com/ctford http://literateprogrammer.blogspot.com ABSTRACT Music theory is one of the most naturally elegant and functional domains. It's a perfect fit for Clojure, which is why the Overtone audio environment makes hacking sound so much fun. Chris will start with the basic building block of sound, the sine wave, and will gradually accumulate abstractions culminating in a canon by Johann Sebastian Bach. By the end you should agree that anyone who's a developer is a musician too - even if they don't know it yet.
