The Fragmented Orchestra is a distributed musical instru- ment which combines live audio streams from geographi- cally disparate sites, and granulates each according to the spike timings of an artificial spiking neural network. This paper introduces the work, outlining its historical context, technical architecture, neuronal model and network infras- tructure, making specific reference to modes of interaction with the public.
