When Coded Beats Come Alive -- Open Mic Volume 2

Evanston Public Library

Do you enjoy or want to learn coding. Are you a spoken word artist, musician, or composer? Come share your talent! We'd love to hear it. It doesn't matter what level you are at.

Do you enjoy or want to learn coding. Are you a spoken word artist, musician, or composer? Come share your talent! We'd love to hear it. It doesn't matter what level you are at. This is a family event, so we ask that all artistic contributions respect the no profanity rule. Keep it PG 13. Thanks!

This is a 2 part event. The first part is learning to code music in TunePad (It's like Garage Band). The second part is having your coded creations played back to you by a live band and or performing your own original content in the open mic section of the event.

Event Schedule

  • 5:30 PM to 6:30 PM: Learn to code and compose
  • 7 PM to 8 PM: Live playback with band and open mic.

This event is for 6th through 12th graders only.

REGARDING THE MUSIC THE BAND PLAYS

When the band plays the music students have composed at the event. Please keep in mind that this is impromptu and Improvised music making. The musicians will not have scores or charts. They will play what they hear or interpret as intention. They are also encouraged to begin with what they hear and evolve it to show possible tangents or evolutions of the initial composition or musical idea. #digitalbackpack
