Digital DJ Camp: Make Music with Code (grades 6-8)
Event Information
About this event
Be a music producer AND a coder! Explore EarSketch, cool music coding software developed by computer scientists at Georgia Tech. Learn how to use EarSketch to create your own songs with samples like drums, synth, and bass. You can also remix music from artists like Common, Ciara, Young Guru, and Richard Devine! It's like the Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) apps the pros use, but controlled by code. As you make music, you'll understand coding concepts like variables, functions, and loops, plus music concepts like rhythm, measures, and BPM.
