Music exploration games are a rich genre rapidly evolving with the rising popularity of alternative controllers. These physical music environments are exploring social play in group contexts. Bot Party is one such attempt using capacitive sensing to detect large groups of players holding hands in circles.

Instructions on how to play:
Bot Party in an interactive sound experience for humans. The bots have a problem. They have no way to communicate with their friends. Can you help? They need you to touch another human holding a bot. Through you the bots use the proprietary bot to skin to skin to bot communication protocol (BSSB) to send encoded secret messages to each other. Hold hands with other players to get the bot sound spectacular started!
