bornach,

Generative "music" for features the Langton's Ant from my "Grow a seed" continuously modifying a drum pattern sent as notes to the Korg Volca Beats. The wobbly functions from another previous prompt control the pitch of arpeggiated tones synthesized using the Sound library which I never used before.

Perhaps a bit too chaotic for

A coloured 10x16 grid of tiles is modified by a Langton ant. One row is highlighted and advances downwards each step. One tile colour is brighter than the others which determines the MIDI pattern to send to a Korg Volca Beats which emits percussion sounds. A white comet traces a curvy path to the right of the tile grid. An arpeggio of tones vary in pitch according to the movement of the comet.
