Show HN: Ossia score, a visual programming language for time (github.com/ossia)

Hey all, so this is the project I've been working on for my phd - it's basically a multimedia sequencer, but with the ability to express conditions (of the kind "if... then" as well as "when... then"), loops, and hierarchy, in order to write interactive scores. A special visual syntax has been devised to be able to express these elements graphically. The doc gives more details : https://ossia.github.io/score/

It's still in alpha but has already been used by multiple artists : https://ossia.io/gallery and has a great interoperability story with many creative coding environments (Max/MSP, OpenFrameworks, Processing, etc) due to native OSC (Open Sound Control) support.

The code itself is C++14/17 and Qt. feel free to ask me anything about it :)
