[LAU] History of the Olympic livecoding games at the LAC

Hi,

for reference, here's a history of what happened during the first Olympic
(SuperCollider) livecoding games at the LAC in Utrecht:

"Concept of the Olympic Games livecoding environment
 Going back to the original Olympic thought of participating is more important
than winning, and drawing on ancient Greek tradition of consulting an Oracle
to find a new path in life, or gain advice on the path one has taken…
 The OlympicGames provide a collaborative, playful competitive livecoding
environment, where participants are given alternating a set of UGens to write
a SynthDef with, or a set of Pattern elements to write a Pattern with.
 The executed code of all participants is visible, both to the audience (by
displaying its screen with a projector) and to all participants. So every
participant can modify code others have come up with."

Thanks to Alberto and Julian for the wonderful Republic Quark, and for the
original Oracle function... :)

Sincerely,
Marije
