This is the code and score for the piece Critical Mass, a work for networked laptop ensemble.

##Requirements The code is written for SuperCollider 3 and has been tested on SuperCollider 3.7. You can obtain that at the SuperCollider website

In addition this patch requires one external library, the NetLib quark.

The easiest way to install the NetLib quark is to open SuperCollider and then run this command:

Quarks.gui;

Then click on "Update Quark Listing."

Scroll down to find "NetLib" in the list.

If you already have the library then it will appear as a green "+" in which case you don't need to do anything more.

If you do not see a green "+" next to "NetLib" then click the "-" icon to the left of it (it will turn into a star).

Lastly, click "Apply" at the top, close the window and then exit SuperCollider.

Just run this on your command line to download everything to your computer:

git clone https://github.com/scazan/CriticalMass.git

If you previously downloaded this code and want the latest version, go to the directory you cloned it into and run:

git pull

##Running There are two ways to run this patch.

To start the patch without having to load anything else just type this at the command line:

./start.sh

You can also start the Conductor's patch in this way:

./startConductor.sh

If you prefer to load this directly in SuperCollider, just open up criticalMass.scd or criticalMass-Conductor.scd, select all, then execute.
