SITE_TRAFFIC v.1.0

Site_Traffic is a telepresence project that involves both a physical
installation and a web-based interface component. The project functions
as a fully programmable remote sequencer that allows for unique non-
verbal communication between users in the physical and online spaces.
Users login to the Site_Traffic server (http://www.site-traffic.net)
where they can program unique MIDI sequences into one of the nine
physical buttons. After finishing a song, users submit the song and send
the note data to the user selected button. Users in the physical space
can push the buttons and listen to the songs programmed through the web-
based interface. They can compose their own songs by pressing multiple
buttons and send the note information and composition back to the online
participants - ie. if you are logged into Site_Traffic you can listen on
the "Listening Room" screen to someone play your song.

Since Site_Traffic's programming interface installation lives online,
the installation is best realized over time. By placing the physical
device in a well-trafficed public space, repeat users can see the change
in songs left by users of the project's internet component. The project
is currently located at the Interactive Telecommunications Program at
NYU's Tisch School of the Arts, New York City.
