Cellular Grid Machine
"Cellular Grid Machine is a virtual-machine mechanism that just-so-happens-to spit out music from its auto mutating 16x16 multi-directional grid. CGM can generate hours / weeks / months / years of continual, self-modifying and self-evolving forms that are created by processes which are arbitary, stupid, pointless and non-musical. It's processes. mechanisms and systems were inspired by its grid and not by musical ideas or musical theory. The music it produces is the excrement of the non-human expression of this machine.
This Cellular Grid Machine represents a totally re-written version of the previous CellularGridMachine(1999). It now includes more grid and collision processes / mechanims, which themselves are more configurable, works with CoreMidi, can export MidiFiles, has multiple Undo/Redo, has complete XG MidiEditing facilities for configuring sounds and XG Tone Generators. It is completely written in Cocoa for OSX."
