       | hear some results!

       | Would it be easier to just provide simple audio files?

         | little speaker icon unmuted?

       | If you're interested in algorithmic music generation, you might
       | want to try Glicol's web demo at:
       | 
       | https://glicol.org/demo#ambienthouse
       | 
       | It's a browser-based tool that lets you experiment with
       | algorithmic composition and sound synthesis.

       | We've been using Earsketch with students:

       | But when we tried to self-host or do an offline version, it was
       | impossible to find the library. Perhaps it isn't open-source.

       | Thanks to the links in this thread, now I have some other
       | projects to try instead.
