<div class="yiv8112871625moz-text-html" lang="x-unicode">Dear Friends,<br>
I'm planning an Internet concert with at least 100 live
performers as part of the
<a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.conncoll.edu/CAT/sym2014/index.html">Ammerman
Center 14th Biennial Arts and Technology Symposium at
Connecticut College</a> on March 1, 2014 at noon. Other concerts
may also take place.<br>
Things are moving rapidly, with the first "field trial"
happening tomorrow and small-scale global rehearsals/tests on Sat
and Sun (EST). We still have a number of slots for
members/performers, and I'm happy to open things up to the NIME
community. Please join us!<br>
<b>What we're doing: </b>A directed live ensemble
performance with players around the world. <br>
<b>How does it work? </b>Local keystrokes are sent to a
server, merged, and echoed back to players. Local synthesis of 100
voices using previously downloaded samples.<br>
<b>What skills and hardware do I need? </b>You can perform by
typing QWERTY keys or you can use a MIDI keyboard. There will be
some scrolling Guitar-Hero like scores (but very slow due to
latency) as well as some improvisation.<b> </b>You need a laptop
or PC (Mac or Win 7 or 8, 64-bit) and a network connection. <br>
<b>How do I join?<br>
</b>
<ul>
<li>Sign up at globalnetorchestra.org </li>
<li>Download test software (instructions at the website)</li>
<li> Develop, test, and upload your personal samples</li>
<li> Stay tuned for future rehearsal opportunities</li>
</ul>
Musically yours,<br>
Roger Dannenberg<br>
