On “The live coding language that lets you be an actual rock star”

Sam Aaron has done several talks on Sonic Pi. It's an amazing piece of work. My favorite talk where he scratches the surface of the tech details was a 2018 talk at Goto : link to this video He also has saved several of his sessions on youtube.
