Agenda:

  1. Homework Critiques
    1. I will be playing the videos over the LCD projector today, starting at 2:35.
    2. The form will auto-post to Google Classroom at 2:30.
    3. You will have one minute between videos to finalize any critiques you have. Use it wisely.
      1. Talking is not using your time wisely.
      2. Being rude to your classmates is even less wise.
  2. Digital Music
    1. Use Sonic-Pi (easier) or PICO-8 (harder) to create a song.
      1. You will likely need to find a tutorial to help you with your program of choice.
      2. Record VIDEO of you playing the song.
        1. OBS is a good choice for this. (Tutorial)
        2. You do not need to use OBS, but you DO need to follow the rubric. #4 is important.
      3. Rubric
        1. Song should be between 2-3 minutes long.
        2. Song should have a clear beginning, middle & end.
          1. Repeating only the same notes for 2 minutes is lazy.
        3. Song should consist of multiple instruments.
        4. Video should show the code you're using while the song is playing.
