Game of Life Music Generator
View this post on Instagram Mathematician John Conway was among the many victims of Covid19. I discovered his Game of Life when I was about 12. It was –like many great ideas– simple enough a kid could get the basics: cells live or die with enough living neighbours. I turned the cells of Game Of Life into a music generator. Each circle you see connects to a synth you hear. The percentage of living cells in each circle translates into a note on the D minor scale. Three circles, three synths. #johnconway #gameoflife #creativecoding #generative #processing3 #algorithmicart #generativeart #creativecodeart #creativecode #generativegraphics #generativemusic #synthstagram #experimentalmusic #warp #proceduralart A post shared by Corrado Monti (@corrado.monti) on May 2, 2020 at 10:08am PDT
