With some blocks in the geometry library of TurtleStitch it's so easy to make designs for cardstock cutting and output as dxf files. Children made these triangular pyramids this afternoon. #turtlestitch

Calling all Creative Coders in or around Sheffield, UK! I just created a new meet-up group so we can all find each other, share ideas and create a nurturing and supportive network. No dates set just yet, but the initial plan is a social monthly meeting. meetup.com/creative-codin…

I can’t quite believe I’m going to be live coding a Sonic Pi set at Tresor in Berlin tonight. It’s a dream come true.

“if you give extra feedback to school kids on their ability in maths - in short, just tell the girls they really are good at the subject - it not only has a huge impact on their confidence, it also more than halves the gender gap once those students get to degree level. Halves!”

If you’re in NYC this Saturday, this is definitely worth your time. The space looks amazing (huge LED screens) and the New York live coding scene has so many talented and wonderful performers. One day I’ll make it to one of these shows…

All set up and ready to say hi to 1200 students and teachers! Pittsburgh Robotics Network Agility Robotics

Earlier this year I programmed Clive Richards 100 cubes in @TurtleStitch. He created it in 1973 using a line plotter: collections.vam.ac.uk/item/O1327456/… The code and stitched example are here: turtlestitch.org/users/megjlow/… #ComputerArt #TurtleStitch #creativecomputing

Another month, and another significant drop in Patreon support and no upcoming talks/workshops/performances in the calendar. It’s hard to imagine a change of fortune in this current financial climate. Please consider supporting my ongoing Sonic Pi work if you can.

All the WMG Primary School Christmas resource boxes are labelled and ready to go into the post tomorrow morning. #WMGoutreach

For those wondering, Sonic Pi won’t be participating in this round of tech layoffs. At least not until the money runs out. Luckily I have a few months left in the bank. If you want to help me to survive this year financially please consider supporting patreon.com/samaaron
