Live-Coding – programming masterly music | Juan Romero & Patrick Borgeat | TEDxKIT

Benoît and the Mandelbrots see the laptop as their main instrument; they are mainly dedicated to live coding, the process of writing software in real time. They use the programming language as an expressive interface between man and machine in order to improvise sound and music. The laptop musicians are connected via a network, enabling them to communicate, synchronize, and share data.
