Last week, in class, I said I want to use sound.js and gibber.js, but through further research, I realized that I should focus on learning gibber and stick to its web editor. gibber is not just a library for sound composition, analysis, and visualization but it is also a live coding environment. This allows live audiovisual performance with extra transparency because the audience can see you typing down your code.
My goal is to compose some sound that includes drums, synth, audio files from freesound.org (the library includes the API), and voice. Then, I will create a visual with a couple of elements, each of them connected to the drum output or the master output. I am going to use both 2D and 3D objects because in gibber when you combine 2D and 3D, the 3D serves as a shade for the 2D object. I have created the basic outline of what my project might sound like and //commented on things that I need to work on.
Here is a screen recording of a very simple live coding.
I am not sure if I will be doing a live coding for the final presentation (I hope I can) but I am definitely planning to make a screen recording of it.

While I was writing this my code stopped working. I have no idea why. It worked 5 minutes ago. Now my excitment has turned into a doubt.
