Human Modular is a way of organizing collaboration.

Inspired by modular synthesizers, human modular applies that vision to large scale art projects. Humans volunteer to become a module. They make an image that represents something they do.

To start off, I would like to say some things.

- It's not a computer program. It's just a collection of images that you can link together. Somebody could write an application that manages these images, but it is not necessary.

- Even though it is an experiment, it's going to be a nice utility. I'd like to make some music using this method.

Contributions and criticism welcome. Please post modules to this thread. I can add more explanation if you want.

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
