Group (example)

• members: Jieun Oh
• (tentative) title of piece: Converge
• summary of piece concept: collect data (location, time, audio recording, text, pictures, tapping gestures) from performers prior to the concert, and combine the elements into a piece during performance based on audience preference
• link to all related files (chuck, audio files, instructions, scores) : converge files
• documentation of what you tried as of May 11: blah blah blah

Virtual Handbell Choir

• members: Nick, Daniel, Jay
• (tentative) title of piece: Virtual Handbell Choir (very tentative)
• summary of piece concept: Air handbells for 15 slork stations w/Golf Controlllers, featuring a guitar hero-like GUI which will automatically disseminate the parts of a MIDI song to each Slork station, with each player being in charge of two bells.

Milestones - 
Instrument - Nick, Daniel - Wednesday 12th
Network - Jay - Monday 10th (something done to pass to daniel)
MIDI - Jay - Monday 10th (something done to pass to daniel)
Graphics - Daniel - Monday 17th
INTEGRATION - ALL - Wednesday 19th
Piece - Nick - At least something by Wednesday 19th

ideas for network: 
1.) songs stored on server - client downloads midi, parses - determines what it needs and displays that
2.) songs stored on server - server parses song - client looks to server for specific part it needs - downloads and displays that

ideas for graphics:
- flies at you at an angle like rock band
- hits are circles, higher velocity = larger circle + different color
- long rectangle for the fast dinging thing
- lower horizontal bar to show you need to dampen

ideas for instrument:
- dampen to your chest and/or with pedal - at least have pedal be a "kill switch" in case of error	
- use STK shaker code to excite the bell sound
