Reading the excerpts on live coding, I found a powerful bridge between the rigorous, serious engineering of my Computer Science major and the immersive worlds of music and the cosmos where I love to get lost. The text describes live coding as a way to unthink the engineering of a day job, transforming the act of programming from a routine task into an “adventure and exploration” that feels akin to traversing the universe. As a senior from Ghana minoring in Interactive Media, I am inspred by how this practice turns the laptop into a “universal instrument”, allowing me to meld my technical background with my creative passions in a conversational flow that is as expressive and boundless as the music I adore.
