The Story

Starting from a single laptop in my bedroom, my interest in computer science and coding came from my love for game design, specifically that of Pokemon games. I began learning the Python programming language when I was in seventh grade in an effort to one day be able to write enjoyable and playable games. My first attempt to write and release a working text-based Pokemon Demo game was finished in April of 2018, and I presented it at my school's technology exposition (Source code posted below). After learning Python, I became proficient in the Java programming language, taking multiple courses for it at my school and online, while also self-teaching myself through youtube videos.

I began learning to write sheet music because of my love for games. My passion for music analysis and deconstruction along with my drive for programming led me to begin writing music digitally through MuseScore software. To improve my ability to write, I would transcribe Pokemon music, note-by-note, from youtube videos. These melody and bass lines would then be converted into a playable song for piano. This was done for me to understand the complexities of the piece, allowing me to practice the score on the piano. After grasping the basic ideas and techniques that make up the music's structure, I orchestrate and arrange the original melody and bass lines for a regular symphony orchestra, small band, or other traditional ensemble.
