Cellular Automata Music 1 is a unique and innovative project that combines the principles of cellular automata with music composition.
The project aims to create a new form of music that is both visually and audibly engaging.
The music is generated through a series of rules and patterns that are applied to a grid of cells, resulting in a dynamic and ever-changing composition.
The project is a collaboration between artists, scientists, and musicians, showcasing the potential of interdisciplinary collaboration.
