Programming Music Camp is a summer outreach camp de-
signed to teach computer programming concepts to youths
through the activity of music-making. Prior experiences
teaching web audio technologies to secondary school stu-
dents are described. The camp curriculum is then outlined,
including the class activities of live coding, instrument de-
sign, and concert performance. The outcomes of the camp
are evaluated and future educational opportunities using
web audio technologies are considered.
