Critical Mass

score→

A work for laptop ensemble exploring emergent phenomena within a networked group. It treats the ensemble as a collection of individual actors in a network where they are able to influence each other. Each member slowly narrows their 'variance' from the pitch of the performer next to them until a generally uniform pitch or harmony emerges that can then be excited by a 'conductor.' These moments then last for as long as the group is in agreement or rather until someone begins to defect.

Performed here by The Laptop Orchestra at University of Iowa (LOUI), directed by Christopher Jette.
