Email malfunction, sorry.

So, I got beat to the punch by a few weeks by Fritz, but this project
is taking a pretty different approach so I don't feel too bad. Gibber
is a browser-based live coding environment that runs best in Google
Chrome. It features:

- simple declarative syntax with automatic graph management: as an
example, Drums("xo") starts a kick/snare drum loop playing immediately

- easy distributed performances where multiple networked computers can
feed code to a single master

- pure JavaScript with no syntax additions

- sample accurate sequencing

- knowledge of scales, notes and chords thanks to teoria.js

- a terse syntax that hopefully lends itself to performance

There is a lot of work to still be done but I'd love to hear any
feedback. Thanks! - Charlie
