This talk will focus on a pivotal song, “The Man Comes Around”.

While both producers intended to sell Cash to a rock audience, Rick Rubin had a more relaxed interpretation of rock’s relationship to gospel music and provided Cash much wider creative latitude. Much later, Rick Rubin embraced Cash’s interest in religious themes and gave him broad creative license. Another example: Johnny Cash initially wanted to record religious music and managed to release a few early gospel tracks despite outright resistance from his first producer, Sam Phillips. This year marks the 50th anniversary of the recording of At Folsom Prison, a project representing one of the many ways Johnny Cash challenged commercial music’s conventional boundaries. The Man Comes Around: and so does his sound!

In this talk I’ll share what I learned about creating an Arabic programming language and how Arabic text really works on your computer.Īhmed loves riding his bike all around NYC, watching the sunset from the Hudson River Park, and reading great code he wishes he wrote. I created Noor with the intention of it being a language for middle schoolers and high schoolers. Arabic is my first language, and I wouldn’t have learned to program had I not moved to the US and learned English. Inspired by Ramsey Nasser’s Arabic programming language Qalb, a functional, Lisp-style language, I created Noor, an Algol-based, imperative Arabic programming language.
