Ever since I started working at #MIT Online Learning I've been searching for one of our courses that I could take that felt... Within reach?

The bar for quality is very high in our course materials, and so many of our courses have a pre-requisites list that leaves me feeling like I am not tall enough to ride that ride.

Not this one though! And I've been dying to understand more of the nuts and bolts of how music is made. What better way than by bridging the gap from a subject I'm intimately familiar with ... #python!

MIT OpenCourseWareMusic and Technology: Algorithmic and Generative Music | Music and Theater Arts | MIT OpenCourseWareThis course examines the history, techniques, and aesthetics of mechanical and computer-aided approaches to algorithmic music composition and generative music systems. Through creative hands-on projects, readings, listening assignments, and lectures, students will explore a variety of historical and contemporary approaches. Diverse tools and systems will be employed, including applications in Python, MIDI, Csound, SuperCollider, and Pure Data.
I wish you were right, but with its "Joint Statement on the GNU Project" #Guix joined the shitstorm that back then was after #RMS head.

Back then, #Stallman selflessly left #MIT and #FSF to protect them from the mob justice, so that "joint back-stab", published in that specific moment was not just a sort of virtue signaling but a plain attack.

So much that, two years later 9 of those people signed the infamous "RMS open letter" calling "for the removal of the entire Board of the Free Software Foundation" that dared reinstantiate RMS and even for "Richard M. Stallman to be removed from all leadership positions, including the GNU Project" out of lies.

The powers in place in 2021 were quite evident: just look at the sponsors of the signing organizations to find Google, Meta, Microsoft and all of their friends.

A reminder for non-tech people: the X Window System¹ has absolutely nothing to share with the South-African capricious kid who was 13 when that piece of software was created at #MIT.

Also, it is named X just because it came after the W Window System²: surprised?

The WP page will give you a very different view on your desktop, after you'll read it.
