Sync Spatial Music

Distributed Music System

System Design, Interaction Design.

Sync is a platform for composing and performing music as a living, spatial experience. It transforms ensembles into interconnected systems where each musician becomes a node in a distributed network. Instructions flow through the group in real time, shaping sound as movement, color, and collective rhythm.

The result is music that is greater than the sum of its parts, a dynamic ecosystem of collaboration. Sync can connect acoustic and electronic instruments, choirs, or hybrid ensembles. Performers can be present in the same space or connected remotely from different cities, creating shared musical structures that unfold across distance. The system is designed to scale from 5 to 100+ performers, allowing both intimate performances and large participatory events.

Sync integrates with Ableton Live and Max for Live, supports rule-based and generative composition, and features a real-time dashboard for monitoring performer activity and spatial movement. It bridges technology and togetherness, turning connectivity itself into a creative material. Sync is an invitation to listen differently. To experience music not as a linear score, but as a shared field of relationships, alive, responsive, and collective.
