Grainfield

Simplified version of the collective experiment created at the MusicTechFest in Berlin during the Hack The Audience workshop (cf. 201605-musictechfest-grain-field)

To install the application (requires node.js and optionally git):

• check out the repository using git or download and unzip the code
• open a shell/terminal and change the current directory to the downloaded (unzipped) project directory
• run npm install

To run the application:

• run npm run watch in the project directory in an open a shell/terminal
• start the controller client, open the URL <server address>:<port>/controller in your browser
• start the recorder client, open the URL <server address>:<port>/recorder in your browser
• start player clients, open the URL <server address>:<port> in your browser

The port used by default is 8000.

In the simplest case the recorder client should run on the same computer as the Node.js server, to avoid the necessity of using a certificate.

The application is based on the Soundworks framework.
