Fire Silvernight, is a software engineer and electronic music artist, based out of the United Kingdom.
The music is made by writing computer code which generates sound data. Midi instuments are used to generate organic melodies and patterns. Gekkota, the computer programming project, maps layers of patterns together to form instruments and effects.
Fire's focus is on velocity and productivity while running teams and building complex applications. With a passion for software development for over a decade. Notable success has included state management systems for an insuratech scale-up, and a team building exercises rolled out to 15 of 18 product teams at a company where he worked at for several years. The depth of his experience is in web technologies, with a recent focus on data/system-level applications in C/C++.
Present software project, Gekkota, is an electronic music engine which uses C++/C/HIP to harness the power of cpu's and gpu's to build and create electronic music from algorithms and patterns. The application features both a live performance interface and a recording/sequencing ui.
Another recent project is the Vertebrae language, which was written in C over the last few years. The language is functional, with support for lexical closures, and highlights loops, with it's roots mainly in the LISP family of languages.
