Whimsy: Art, Beats & Code
summary
Demonstrates concrete projects and tools rather than abstract motivation: a JavaScript package fish-draw that procedurally generates detailed fish illustrations, a short playback from ludotune showing a visual music sequencer that actually produces sound, and use of sonic pi for live algorithmic music. Describes procedural generation rules, how cubes map to tones, and Raspberry Pi piano experiments; claims these systems run and create compelling outputs, not just mockups, and suggests simple, reproducible steps to try them.
