In this paper we describe a qualitative study investigating how artists work with a scalable and distributed audio-visual installation system that utilises IoT technology. With no prior experience of the system invited artists incorporated the new technology according to a creative brief for a public performance. We examined how they (i) built an understanding of the technology's affordances, (ii) refined their creative goals, and (iii) deployed collaborative strategies to achieve creative outcomes. We examine how the artists worked from the examples we provided to integrate our audio-visual system and develop their creative work. We identify three distinct creative strategies and use these to suggest ways that the design of examples, presets and readymade configurations can be successfully integrated into interfaces for new creative technologies.
