In a similar way, perhaps we should not be attempting to defeat the lag monster, but rather to create novel musical jamming techniques that operate within the timing constraints of the web.
yes, i think this is a much better kind of approach. it's like in a mario game when he is swimming- the controls do not respond so rapidly, and there is the notion of momentum too. even though [up until this point] improvising musicians have been all walking that ultra-present wire, maybe interesting music can be made where there is a delay between doing something and having it affect the flow of music. keep on doing! -- \js : "verbing weirds language." -calvin [http://or8.net/~johns/]
