Chris Mills

Heavy Metal Coding

In this unconventional talk, Chris Mills will encourage you to pick up some drum sticks in addtion to your laptop, and beat out a rhythim of learning - both of and drum beats! You'll learn basic JavaScript and CSS, plus beginner's heavy metal drum patterns. The two are a marriage made in heaven, as nothing is a better antidote to code frustration than beating seven shades of **** out of a drum kit.
