Today we pitch our major project to our class. Since I did start early I was semi-ready for this day. My project was to create an Arduino instrument that would be extended to something else which I haven't thought about yet. The reasoning behind doing something that evolved coding was to demonstrate that tech Music Education doesn't have to be just remixing using Ableton or using Soundtrap, but it can be even more hands on and different like coding. There was an ABC news article on a Melbourne Musician who coded a synthesizer and performed it live. I really like the idea of using STEM in Music Education, finally closing that gap and divide between STEM and Music.
Article: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-07-21/live-coding-australia-music-computer-code/11301114 After hearing a whole bunch of amazing ideas, from e-books to music videos, we had a look at some other teaching resources like the artiphon and mini launchpad. The artiphon was a cool looking midi controller that can interchange between instruments. The mini launchpad remind me of the the free ipad launchpad you can download on the app store...(which I have...many).
