SUMMARY:Notes on the synthesis of time: The art of engineering with AI

DESCRIPTION:Description:\nFor over a decade\, Sonic Pi has been used in cla
	ssrooms around the world to teach programming through music. Students expl
	ore sequencing\, loops\, data structures\, and algorithms by coding beats\
	, basslines\, and shimmering synths. At the same time\, professional music
	ians have taken Sonic Pi to stages and concert halls\, using programming i
	tself as an instrument of musical expression.\n\nNow the story continues w
	ith Tau5\, a new live coding system focused on collaboration. In music\, c
	oncurrency\, distribution\, and fault tolerance aren’t just safety nets - 
	they are uncompromising demands. When embraced\, they become powerful crea
	tive tools for human expression and connection.\n\nIn this talk\, Dr. Sam 
	Aaron reflects on a year of building Tau5 using agentic AI\, specifically 
	Claude Code\, as a primary collaborator in prototyping\, architecture\, an
	d implementation. While AI is often seen as a tool for implementing alread
	y “solved” systems\, this experience suggests a different possibility - on
	e that challenges many of our assumptions about how software is made.\n\nT
	he audience will explore how AI can support deep systems programming\, and
	 why doing so requires rethinking our approaches to engineering\, creativi
	ty\, and education. Ultimately\, this is a story about learning to work wi
	th AI - not asking what it can replace\, but how it can improvise alongsid
	e us.\n--------------------------------\n\nSpeaker:\n- Sam Aaron\n\n------
