Codie
Photo: Westley Hennigh-Palermo
Codie is Kate Sicchio, Sarah Groff Hennigh-Palermo and Melody Loveless.
We are a live coding trio, making music and visuals. Our performances are A/V shows will electronic sounds and video projections. We perform by creating our works live and anew for each performance. Our sounds are dancey and our graphics are SoCal. Sarah’s visuals are coded with her own Clojurescript-Electron app called La Habra. She creates patterns and abstract shapes that animate and move to the rhythm. Kate and Melody’s music is created in the Ruby-based environment Sonic Pi. They manipulate and layer samples with algorithms to create the soundtrack.
We type and improvise as we go, reacting to each other’s output and the audience’s reactions. In accordance with the Live Coding Draft Manifesto, we project our code as we go, so the audience can inspect and marvel at the changes and accumulations.
Codie has appeared at many live code and A/V events globally. Our performances are normally 20-30 minutes in length.
