The soon-to-be-marketed app "The ECG - The Endless Combination Generator" is a powerful tool that was initially created as a training programme for professional jugglers.
The ECG allows jugglers in training to create an infinite number of combinations from a finite number of juggling figures. The more juggling figures a juggler knows, the more combinations then become possible.
In training, and in the creation of juggling routines for performance, one of the major challenges is to generate and discover interesting and innovative transitions between the different juggling elements a performer has at his, or her, disposal. By generating random lists from the figures a juggler knows, and working through the combinations that are created, the artist improves their skill level while at the same time improving the chances of discovering transitions that are interesting and challenging.
The ECG allows a performer to create sets of routines for any particular object - balls, clubs, rings, etc... and for any number of objects, but The ECG can also be used for any object or subject the user has in mind. The ECG is a tool that can challenge artists from any figure, or trick, based discipline and has also been used to generate weekly menus and guest lists for dinner parties.
The ECG is an app for anybody who believes in the positive benefits of random chance.
The ECG will be available by the end of March 2013 for a price of £0.99.
