» Machina: MIDI sequencing with FSAs and genetic algorithms
“Machina is a polyphonic MIDI sequencer based on Finite State Automata. Machina is probabilistic (i.e. very small machines can produce interesting non-repetitive output) but also capable of deterministically representing any piece of “discrete note music” - or anything in between. Recently support for evolving machines (using a Genetic Algorithm) which play similar (but not identical) music to an existing piece (from a MIDI file or real-time MIDI instrument input).”
