). The connections paves the way for scalability and opens the door to new forms of data research for scientists and artists. For this post I wanted to create a Node for Max project focused on extracting audio from the web using an API to create a sampler. And I thought it would be cool to create a global bird composition machine, but before I get to that level, I needed to build the tools first. Plus, bird sounds are fun!
