Code snippets generating sound-patterns are being (re-)written live, and both sounds and codelets can and will get sent from any player’s laptop to any other in the group. “We explore the implausibilities of code as a viable performance interface, of reading and writing music together in real time, of treating laptops as full-fledged instruments.” Republic111 began in the context of the Computational Art class at UdK Berlin, and we play with Republic, a SuperCollider library for networked just in time programming developed by members of powerbooks_unplugged.
