2004
Phil Burk's 2004 graphical editor, Wire, served as a crucial rapid-prototyping tool for developing Max Neuhaus’s Auracleby allowing developers to visualize sound algorithms and export them directly into Java code. By enabling quick iteration and visual patching of the JSyn engine, Wire functioned as a "virtual workbench" to refine the instrument’s voice-controlled, networked sound design.
