What is Parrot?

I wrote this hack for a Halloween party. This was in the "confusion" room. A microphone picked up sounds that guests made, and at random intervals, they heard their own voices played at other parts of the room.

The hack listens to the sound input device and remembers everything it hears (that is loud enough) and then plays those things back in a random order. If your Mac has stereo capability, then it also randomly chooses a speaker to play each sound.

The program creates as many buffers as it can fit in its memory partition. You can see how many buffers were created by choosing "About Confusion…" from the Apple menu. If you want the program to make more buffers, just increase the memory partition for the program with "Get Info…" from the finder.
