Abstract

LiveCodeNet Ensamble is a laptop band from Mexico City that approaches computer music improvisation through live coding and a local network. This text discusses aspects of the ensemble's practice related to some elements of the SuperCollider program such as broadcast and history, and the concepts synchrony and collective listening in order to reflect on a collective instrument, group practice, and improvisation in the context of network music and live coding.

This code is written in SuperCollider and based on the broadcast connection method and History class. The code was written by Alberto de Campo and Julian Rohrhuber during a workshop of the Symposium/*vivo*/ 2012, and later adapted, by the ensemble, to the necessities of interconnection. See Villaseñor, H. (2014) for the code.
