Overbug

Overbug is a music-performance tool designed to compose minimal, dance and pop music. By arranging looping sound patterns, called 'Bugsounds', the program creates complex, polyrhythmic compositions. Overbug differs from conventional linear-controlled music sequencers, which arrange sound into a timeline from left to right. In Overbug, the sound arrangement of the repetitious musical loops are visually abstracted into circles which can be moved and manipulated. dominofactory.net/works
