The Life Cycle Methods And The Wolf - A Musicological Romp

Ryan Moore at React Rally 2018

In 1936 Sergei Prokofiev introduced his piece Peter and The Wolf, which broke down a complex system of sound and tied it to narrative elements: Peter as the playful Strings, the Wolf as powerful French Horns, etc. I will apply a similar method to introduce, teach and identify each component life cycle method with a musical accompaniment. I will compose a musical theme for and introduce each one independently. Finally I will conduct a small chamber of orchestral musicians as they perform their themes along with an actual react component performing updates in real(ish) time!
