gibber is a live coding environment for audiovisual performance, which combines music synthesis and sequencing with ray-marching 3d graphics. Gibber was created by Charlie Roberts, who is a researcher and artist interested in live coding, computer music, and interactive systems. Gibber allows users to use JavaScript. To start with Gibber, there’s no need to install anything; you can begin coding directly in your web browser.There are lots of amazing live coding systems out there, a few things that make Gibber different include:
- Novel annotations and visualizations within the code editing environment.
- Unified semantics for sequencing audio and visuals.
- Support for coding with external audiovisual libraries, such as p5.js and hydra.
- Support for networked ensemble performances.
One of the strengths of Gibber is its intuitive interface and approach to visualizing and managing sequences for each channel.
It can also intigrate with visual.Gibber allows for the integration of visuals that can be manipulated in real-time alongside sound, offering a cohesive performance of audiovisual art. Visuals can react to the music, providing a more immersive and engaging experience for both the performer and the audience.
To sum up, Gibber provides an intuitive platform for users to explore musical concepts, programming, and audiovisual integration through immediate feedback and visual representation of sequences (even you don’t know music theory!)
