About Goldingcode Academy
Before and after working in music algorithms Mr. Golding taught coding and related topics for over ten businesses, who never provided him a curriculum -- being a master improviser this was not usually a problem but the best lessons stuck, and the published literature eventually caught up with kids coding, so now we have a smooth sequence that can take anyone of any ability level to the heights of AI insight!
FUN FACTS ABOUT YOUR TEACHER:
When it comes to MUSIC & AI, Centre Director Adam Golding was an RCM and UofT-trained Composer, Music Theorist, and Music AI Startup Developer before 'exporting' these AI teachings for humans:
He began teaching free and rule-based piano improvisation to humans of all ages ten years ago based on advanced music theory and rule-based AI in an innovative yet-to-be-published teaching method called "ANARCHIST PIANO LESSONS", through which he seeks to revive the dead art of classical improvisation, which died around the time of the birth of recording!
Mr. Golding is Toronto's leading expert in classical improvisation at the piano.
Mr. Golding's research speciality in music history is actually VIDEO GAME MUSIC & CHIPTUNES! His favourite composer is NOBUO UEMATSU and his favourite game-and-score-combination is THE FINAL FANTASY IV PIXEL REMASTER -- a tale of a knight not completely unlike the Knights of Malta, with whom Malta Park down the street from Ultimate Coders High Park could be associated!
(The Knights of Malta descend from The Knights Templar, and Centre Director Adam Golding descends directly from The Knights Templar Founder!)
Speaking of lineages, more importantly, Mr. Golding's old UofT professor GEOFF HINTON is known as the GODFATHER OF AI and is the GREAT-GREAT-GRANDSON of GEORGE BOOLE after whom the BOOLEAN VARIABLES we use are named, making BOOLE the GREAT-GREAT-GRAND-GODFATHER of AI!
Most importantly HINTON is one of the GREAT TEACHERS of AI and there is NO BETTER WAY TO STAY ON TOP OF THE FIELD than to LISTEN TO HINTON'S LATEST APPEARANCES ON YOUTUBE WITH THIS SEARCH QUERY, IT'S FUN FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY, TYPE IT OUT: youtube.com/results?search_query=Hinton
