Hyperyarn: A Multi-Protocol Realtime Communication Client Server Application and Live Coding Environment

Hyperyarn is an Open Source experimental Multi-Protocol Realtime Communication Client Server Application and Live Coding Environment. Hyperyarn facilitates realtime communication leveraging P2P (Peer-To-Peer) technology, i.e. through DHT (Distributed Hash Table) lookups in order to decentralize discourse and enable exchange of shared files inside the Hyperyarn UI (User Interface) with a built-in file browser and DCC (Direct Client-to-Client) protocol support. As a Live Coding Environment, Hyperyarn includes a self-modifying source code editor, compiler, virtual machine and debugger with network support for collaborative and performative programming projects. Hyperyarn provides cross platform support for computational systems and mobile devices and is released under the GNU GPL.

Hyperyarn is a conceptual artware project by criticalartware functioning as an Open Source experimental Multi-Protocol Realtime Communication Client Server Application + Live Coding Environment. Hyperyarn is inspired by + intertwingled with ideas such as Ted Nelson's speculative Xanadu systems + Marcel Duchamp's Mile of String project. Hyperyarn hopes to variously entangle script kitties across multiple interwoven {ports|paths} including runme.org, _arc.hive_, Rhizome.org + other ports in playful pseudo-codes, self-recursive systems, extreme programming, realtime data processing + collaborative exchange. Enabling + decentralizing discourse, Hyperyarn facilitates realtime communication on a distributed network between client/server applications. These applications, otherwise known as criticalartware core.developers, will utilize Hyperyarn's encrypted modes (including 1337 speak, artspeak, Jargon Files, critical discourse + Hyperyarn source codes) to collectively improvise live codework, discursive hyperactivity + extreme programming of Open Source artware systems. As a conceptual artware project, Hyperyarn is {actualized|activated} through the process of it's own articulation + documentation of the conversational exchanges that constitute this open artware system.

criticalartware presents Hyperyarn within the ISEA2006 re:mote program during criticalartware's "overcoded: live codework, artware discussion + hyperweaving session" [performance/presentation]. during "overcoded" criticalartware core.developers engage multiple discursive modalities simultaneously in an open cacophonious jam, improvising collaborative strategies of live codework, discursive hyperactivity, open artware development + extreme programming. this sessioning of theorypractices will crease, expand, infold, encode + translate variously interwoven [hacker/cracker] cultures to interrogate the elitism of "leet speek" as artspeak + artworld flirtations with naive outsider status in the formation of marketable artistic identities while pouring a warm bowl of welcoming milk for would be script kittens across distributed ports, applications + platforms. those who login to these conversational networks will {play|participate} in performative social constructions, commenting up contingent pseudo codes of temporary artware systems (i.e. Hyperyarn) + exploit scripts, criss-cross + cross-post on networks of meaning, bounce messages like balls of unspooling Hyperyarn + install online entanglements with a Duchampian Mile of String during ISEA 2006.

As a Live Coding Environment, Hyperyarn includes a self-modifying source code editor, compiler, virtual machine + debugger with network support for collaborative + performative programming projects. Hyperyarn seeks to maintain strict Toplap compliancy as a Live Coding Environment by positioning Coding as a Conceptual Act of Social Artware. Congruent with strict Toplap compliancy standards, Hyperyans offers developers a conceptual coding environment to perform realtime artware development + [hacker/cracker/coder/artist/script kitty] identity constructions in realtime edge to edge autonmy + interdependence. Hyperyarn is written in Hyperyarn to increase self-reflexivity + recursiveness. Hyperyarn allows users to connect through insecure proxies during live coding sessions to further complicate + problematize assumptions + foreground conceptual artware instability, temporality + speculativity. Hyperyarn provides cross platform support for human computers, computational systems + mobile devices + is released under the GNU GPL.
