# Welcome to the world of SOUND♪
Come with us now on a journey through space and sound ♪♫.
```
:D - who me?

You have at your hands the capability to make every sound imaginable.
```clojure
(definst creativity [amp 9999] (* amp (lf-saw 300)))
```
Unplug those headphones,
```
d[-_-]b
/█\
.Π.
```
adjust your volume
```
█ ▆ ▅ ▃ Volume @ 50%
```
and your ears are ready to begin their journey.
## > Before you begin your travels
```

:O Urm... please wait <'..'>
/█\ I'm installing Java (oo)_/6
.Π. W W
```
A good journey always starts with getting all your equipment prepared.
Its rarely fun but hey, you don't want to stand live on stage installing Java.
```
git clone git@github.com:josephwilk/strangeloop2014.git && cd strangeloop2014 && make
```
The path you choose dictates what you need to setup.
Also no matter what, you will need to pick and prepare an instrument: [Vim, Emacs, Lighttable, SonicPi](instruments/readme.md)
## > You reach a fork in the road

One path leads to instant power but you are never truely free.
The other leads to complete freedom but you have to build your world from scratch.
