The three-hour workshop “Creating Music with Code: An Introduction to Creative Programming with Sonic Pi” takes place on 28 March 2026, from 17:00 to 20:00, at the Municipality of Meteora Music School in Kalambaka. Yannis Mygdanis designs and leads the workshop, which is intended for teenagers aged 12–16 and connects music-making with creative programming and computational thinking. Participation is free.
Through short, progressively structured exercises in Sonic Pi, teenagers will connect the concepts of sequence, repetition, conditional structures, and controlled randomness with musical pulse, structure, texture, and orchestration. They will develop rhythmic and melodic patterns, organise musical layers using synthesisers and sound samples, and experiment with loops, filters, and effects. At the end, they will create short musical productions and present them using elements of live coding, connecting writing code with immediate listening and musical performance.
