WolframTones, "an experiment in a new kind of music", applies Wolfram's discoveries to the creation of music. Everything it generates is original. "Each composition is produced by running a program found by searching the computational universe, taking the pattern the program produces, and converting it to a musical score", Wolfram says. WolframTones uses a type of program known as a one-dimensional cellular automaton, or Wolfram automaton, studied by Stephen Wolfram since the early 1980s. The followings are all compositions generated by Wolfram Tones algorithms ( http://tones.wolfram.com ): Classical | 31.1226783787.14984208 | piano, strings Latin | 31.929194033.152101 Jazz | 110.3811477902.74875 Sources:
