Lowering the Gangplank: How Writing Songs Relates to Templating

Sunday 2:50 PM–3:20 PM in Door 12 / Goldfields Theatre

Templating is awesome! It makes automation easier and takes away a lot of the tedious work required to maintain and build new things. Now, what if I told you that the way we utilise templates is somewhat similar to how songs are written? In this talk I will lower the proverbial gangplank from our templating ship as we cross over into the land of song writing and discover how these two concepts are linked.

This talk will including me singing live on stage and audience participation will be encouraged!
