Society of Algoritm was (is?) a collaboration between Akihiro Kubota, Guy Van Belle and Isjtar around 2006.
They performed live synthesized music on the net, sending minimal amounts of data to one another across the globe in the form of matrixes which are visualized as pixel art.
The connection between Tokyo, Bratislava and Beijing was inherently slow, smearing out the rhythms.
