I started programming when I was 12. I was completely self-taught, learning dynamically from the internet.
You can view some of my early work on tutorial videos I had made on Youtube. xcomputernerdx was my channel, apologies for the name, but I was twelve at the time. I made tutorials on how to make a web browser, text editor and even a small bootable operating system using Cosmos.
Not long after I learned to program, I also started playing guitar. I eventually got into writing my own music. For recording and mixing music, I used Adobe Audition, Audacity and Pro-tools. I had a band, called Every Other Aspect. You can check out some of my recordings here (Soundcloud) or my YouTube videos here.
When I was a contestant in CBC's Searchlight competition, I needed an easy way to get my music out there, and to get people to vote for my songs. In order to achieve this, I built a small, but flexible application to help promote my song. It was called Tweetagram. Using Tweetagram, I was able to leave the computer while it automatically sent Twitter users, interested in music of a specific genre, a chance to check out my music.
