This fills me with joy; I was itching to write a similar blog post.

Sonic Pi looks great! Thanks for the suggestion! Overtone looks interesting, but Sonic Pi being ruby seems more approachable/easier to install and run.

Same for music. There are a handful of famous composers who get paid to just do their thing, but for everyone else the gigs are "give me a 70 second song that sounds like X and has a big dramatic peak at the 55 second mark, due Friday".

fitting pieces together and not breaking the invariant and relationship between them ? #harmony
