Events
I'm coding live, speaking, and lurking at in-person and remote events all over the world (a lot online and Barcelona at the moment):
Live Streaming Code
If you have ever been to a developer live event, like a conference or workshop, you might have noticed that live coding is one the most fun, exciting and unpredictable happening that's out there. It's feared by presenters because it always breaks when someone's looking. It's loved by the viewers for its interactivity and learning effects. WYSIWYG.
Live streams as hangouts
Live streams are an awesome place to meet some friends, old and new, and chat with them.
If you want even more interactivity, some streamers offer slots where "non-lurkers" can meet in a video or audio room (like Zoom or Telegram) as part of the stream.
Live stream coding as an educational experience
As a professional poker player ♠️ back in the days, I've made the experience that it is one of the most powerful educational experiences when you watch someone play and have them explain their thoughts and processes while they are succeeding and failing in front of your eyes.
I believe that with coding live streams we can achieve a similar effect if we put some thought into organizing the stream's format and frames.
I'm experimenting with combining interactivity with the viewers (in a pair/mob programming style) with a video course type of experience (explaining concepts and ideas on the way) while working on small programs (with a complexity size that fits in everyone's brain).
Twitch live stream coding
All the streams go live on twitch and you get a notification if you are subscribed to the channel:
All recordings persisted on YouTube
The recordings are persisted for 14 days on Twitch and forever on YouTube:
Current streaming schedule
Check out those streams and feel free to participate. Ping me if you'd like to do a themed pairing session someday, solving coding challenges or tackling coding studies.
