- This face was designed for use specifically with a ChucK composition
called "On the Floor" by Scott
Smallwood for PLOrk
(visit concert).
- This face shows three large spheres. They represent the dials on a
slot machine.
- There is also a stack of see thirty yellow disks, or coins, in the
lower right corner of the window. These represent your money. To their
left is a large number in brackets. This tells you how many coins you
have left.
- You can bet one, two, or three coins at a time, by pressing 1,
2, or 3 in the command line area at the bottom of your
Audicle window.

- Each time you bet, the sound of a slot machine will play, and the
spheres will rotate around one another and the background will flash
different colors (see images above).
- You will have the chance of wining more money with each bet. The
idea is for multiple users to "gamble" at the same time, thereby creating
the soundscape of a casino floor, with dozens of slot machines each
playing their music. When you are all out of coins, a tone will slowly
fade in and play until the program is haulted. Oh yeah, skot can surveil
you via the network and tweak yer odds, to make sure the house stay
profitable and also so the piece ends at some point.
