Algorithmic Arts programs

ArtWonk 3.0
ArtWonk produces MIDI music and paint graphics based on algorithmic rules you interactively create by connecting modules (graphical objects representing functions and processes) in real time, adjusting the parameters as you go, in an interactive drag & drop environment especially designed to be fast to learn, fast to use. Not a set of canned me-too riffs or rules, but an open ended palette of composing modules to powerfully boost your creativity.
 
SoftStep 3.2
SoftStep is a modular MIDI step sequencer and algorithmic composing program patterned somewhat after the modular analog step sequencers. The big ones, with lots of knobs and blinky lights. Graphicaol modules connect together to produce a MIDI data stream that can drive any MIDI synthesizer or sound card. It will make a standard MIDI file for your web page, to insert into your music notation sequencer, or just play with any MIDI file player.
 
BankStep 2.1
BankStep is a software emulation of hardware bank sequencers found in the big analog synthesizers, that produce control for the sound but not the sound itself. Instead of analog control voltages BankStep produces MIDI (and can make standard MIDI music files). Otherwise, BankStep functionally emulates a monster bank of hardware sequencers and support modules just as it might sit on top of a big Moog - or your soft synth, MIDI module or sound card.
 
Bio2MIDI 2.1
Bio2Midi converts the text of a DNA or protein sequence to a MIDI file, which you may immediately audition, or import into any MIDI sequencer for further compositional processing. Choose to listen to the sequences as 4-note DNA bases, or as 20-note protein amino acids, or both at once. You can select specific data sections to be translated, called exons and introns, and mark areas of interest to be played in a different instrument.
