Generative Music Box Project

Tired of learning JavaScript with the same boring, todo-list kind of examples? Master HTML, CSS and JavaScript through wickedly smart projects instead.

Welcome to Build a Generative Music Box. In this project we take inspiration from Brian Eno and Peter Chilvers’ Bloom application. You'll build a web application, using JavaScript, that allows you to create generative, ambient music. With a small amount of code you'll handle your mouse clicks, use the canvas for the user interface and graphics, and leverage the Web Audio API to create sound. You'll also spend a lot of time on scheduling events in time and organizing your code. This project is a great way for you to practice programming in JavaScript by creating an interactive and dynamic application right in your browser.
