data, as you describe below, in fact; although themes might naturally
emerge. i was also thinking we could place constraints on how data is
used, but now i'm not so keen on that idea.

yes. all we need is an ftp server :)

yes, would be great to see a diverse range of artistic results... so
who'd like to take part? i have some handmade sound samples i could
contribute.
btw, i've recently bought a copy of Kylix. it's great for doing fast
interfaces for stuff. the object pascal language is nice enough, but
doesn't have the features i'm used to with Perl.. so i'm just using it
for making weird interfaces for weird musical Perl scripts.
happily, a free version of Kylix will soon be available. i believe that
the only restriction will be that software you make may only be
distributed under a GPL.
cheers
