Give a swarm something to play.
Find a pulse, disturb it, listen to what returns.
Six experiments. One shared sound.
Press Play. Each creature chooses when a fragment of your sound is heard. Try the studies using the same material.
In Flock or Together, hold or drag in the field to scatter. Switch to Move region to drag the sound gate. Shift-drag works too.
Keep state remembers the motion and controls; Return replays from that moment. Capture records up to five minutes of audio output. It finishes if you leave the tab.
Pulse uses this instrument’s tempo. It does not sync to a DAW. Samples stay in your browser; reloading clears the session. Breeding uses your selections, and Cooling uses a simple spatial target. These are first sketches to listen to.
Small oscillators drift toward one another. Turn Together up and hear their separate ticks become a shared pulse.
Can you hear separate voices deciding to agree?
