1) Professor Jonathan Wayne Mills (aka Slate) is a composer of orchestral music, integrating electronic instruments and sounds from the world around him into programmatic and thematic pieces. He began his musical career in 2005, and now teaches a class at Indiana University, called 'Principles of Music and Programming', to non-music and non-computer science majors. The course relates the principles of music composition to computer programming and has proven very popular. He formed the Cardinal Skies Ensemble in 2010 to provide an annual performance venue for his students. His music has been inspired by composers for film, particularly Alan Silvestri, classical composers including Bach, Dukas and Ligeti, and modern electronic musicians such a Terry Riley and Wendy Carlos. His taste is eclectic, though, and he enjoys anything, even noise. Tina Turner’s performance of Addicted to Love live at the Wembley Arena in the UK is a favorite. http://www.reverbnation.com/5la7e 2) Slate (formerly known as Suite Breath) is a synthwave artist from Santiago, Chile.
