beatbugs

[Swen Emmerling <emmerling@xxxxxxxxx>]

The Beatbugs are a network of eight hand-held percussion instruments 
that are designed to encourage people to play music together. Players 
can enter simple rhythmic motifs, manipulate and develop them, and 
collaborate with each other to perform and create music. In the 
composition ?Nerve? by Gili Weinberg, players choose between 
manipulating existing motives and entering their own material. This 
creates an evolving musical system driven by the interaction between the 
player's choices and the system's stochastic algorithm.
