Flocking/Swarm library for OM?

OpenMusic

Hi -

Does anyone know if there is an OM library that handles flocking or swarms around guide notes? I’d like to have a ‘melodic’ line around which a flock of notes gravitate with variable density and ‘gravity’ to the guide…?

Thanks!

Dear Graham,

I don’t know about an existing ready-to-fill-in Library that could do such a thing. Can you also provide an example of what you want to achieve here, even if it is hand sketched?
It could be that you need to use some aleatoric or brownian noise. In this case take a look at Alea and Chaos libraries.
