Living Melodies – Coevolution Of Sonic Communication
Paper in proceeding, 1999
An artificial world of coevolving communicating agents has been constructed. The behavior of
the agents is described in terms of a simple genetic programming framework, which allows the
evolution of foraging behavior and movement in order to reproduce, as well as sonic
communication. The sound of the entire world is used as musical raw material. Musically
interesting and useful structures are found to emerge.
