Live Coding
I am experimenting with live coding using Hydra, created by artist-coder-thinker Olivia Jack.
Hydra can also load in external libraries, which opens up the possibility of adding features like synthesis (with Tone.JS) and 3D (with THREE.js) in JavaScript.
What really excites me is that it makes code, normally a solitary activity, strangely social – both with “jam”-style collaborative coding and just the ability to share snippets and ideas with others.
