Client: (name to be confirmed), IMC

Sophisticated digital music composition tools like the Sonic Pi language rely on an internal architecture of samples, waveforms and filters. In the popular SuperCollider system, a new synthesiser is defined by software-wiring together these "UGens”. Your task is to create a SuperCollider client that looks like a retro-style modular synthesiser or guitar pedal board, where connecting literal wires between pictures of hardware modules on the screen will construct an exact digital equivalent within the SuperCollider server. A live audio input would give you a universal guitar pedal, sample mixing makes you a DJ/producer, or if bleeps and whooshes are your thing, you can impress your Grandpa by channelling Brian Eno in the glory days of Roxy Music.
