Cellular Automata Mapping Procedures.
Peter Beyls · University of Michigan Library Repository · 2004
Despite of the simplicity of their construction, cellular automata are capable of very complicated behavior with very little specification.The present paper introduces an algorithmic music system incorporating a voting rule type automaton extended with energy profiles and an elaborate mapping algorithm.One core design principle is the fusion of generative, implicit behavior with explicit user designed symbolic processes, in particular, facing the mapping task.
