A great deal of music is created collaboratively, with band members working with each other's ideas to create a cohesive whole. However, this is often not the case in electronic music, with most artists working as individuals or with pre-programmed pieces. The idea of this project is to begin to explore the creation of electronic music in a collaborative environment by providing a networked sequencer for live use. Each user will be able to manipulate a number of controls, with changes they make being sent over a network connection to the other users.

The performance data will be available to each user in the network via MIDI or OSC with each connected user being able to play the music through a different set of instruments and effects. This will result in each user listening to a unique performance of the piece. Also, each user will be able to select which peers to connect to, potentially resulting in every person in the network listening to a different beat and melody. The completed program will provide a novel approach to electronic music making, and mark the beginning of a new generation of collaborative live performance tools.
