More about this activity
Requires one or more USB MIDI controllers with 8-9 rotary knobs or sliders. (The Korg nanoKontrol is recommended; use Preset 4. All nine sliders are available.)
Note that Sugar 0.82 is not supported. For Sugar 0.84 (SoaS Strawberry), the csound-python module must be installed. This is accomplished in the Terminal activity with these two lines:
su
yum install csound-python
This version of Sun-Moon Music is especially designed for collaborative exploration and performance. All MIDI control devices must be set to the same channel.

NOTE: The built-in speakers of the XO-1, or any laptop/netbook, are completely inadequate for anything but testing. Even the least expensive set of stereo headphones is quite satisfactory however. Otherwise, a decent stereo system with spaced speakers is required.
NOTE: This activity is introduced by a quotation from The Canticle of the Sun by Francis of Assisi, relating to "Brother Sun" and "Sister Moon."
