Bfa in music. Composed, did some side recordings and gigging. Loved it but didnt like the financial situation nor the life style. Got my degree in compsci. Did 3 years freelance UI dev for an engineering firm, now do Hardware QA with Ruby based automation system for that firm ft. Music, coding and testplanning are along the same line of thinking. As long as you stick with the basic low level rules, you can design however you like as long as it works. One major diff is eng work has way more accountability. In music, if you make trash, you just dont eat.
