Making Music with Ruby: Patterns, Context, Fun
summary
Concrete demos and working glue code decide whether to watch: Ruby scripts call Chuck to render Pi-derived melodies and record WAVs, a snorkel repo bundles examples, a live‑coding starter herbivore sends MIDI and sporks Chuck shreds, and a bloop sopone + ukian Rhythm example quantizes Pi into chip‑tune patterns. Super collider is driven from Ruby, Ableton Live control via MIDI is shown, EEG/geophysics sonifications sometimes feel thin but a lattice mapping produced satisfying harmonic results.
