Where do I learn more about the more/less objects?

Here's the abstract: http://www.uni-weimar.de/medien/wiki/PDCON:Conference/Self-replication:_how_...

The full conference proceedings are due to be published online any time soon.

I'd really hope to hear from Krzystof on this topic.  His [more]/[less] objects presented at the PdCon were really interesting for creating large numbers of voices.

The difference in approach embeds the new instances (without having a graphical representation) into the same abstraction and sums their outputs on the outlets provided.  It behaves a lot like MPI programming where each program instance is an exact copy, differentiated only by index.  Messages piped in can be sent to specific embedded instances through [less] if I remember correctly.

Increasing or decreasing the number of voices sounds like a dynamic patching application.  I don't know much about it, myself.

Im not sure what the best way is to instantiate variable number of objects, for example consider polysynth.pd:

Theres a fixed number of manually placed voices, suppose I want to have the top patch to contain a counter through which one may increase or decrease the number of voices, how would I go about that (without manually placing a load of voices and disabling them...)?

Whats the vanilla way to do this? Whats the pd-extended way to do this? ...
