She\u2019s creator of the Geek Gurl Diaries YouTube web series, a Computer Science and ICT teacher, recipient of TalkTalk\u2019s London 2013 Digital Heroes award, and somebody that all of us at Raspberry Pi think very, very highly of. Most recently, Carrie Anne has spent much of the summer working with Dr Sam Aaron at the University of Cambridge on a Key Stage 3 scheme of work for schools, tailored for England\u2019s new programme of study, based around a little something of Sam\u2019s called Sonic Pi.<\/p>\n<p>Sonic Pi is a programming environment that allows you to make sounds. Which is a very dull way of saying that it\u2019s a way to build your own synthesiser from scratch.
