interactive morphogenesis / organic data visualization

Interactive Morphogenesis is an experimental research project in the field of organic visualization of data for artistic purposes. the project demonsrates a concept for interacting with 3-dimentional Lindenmayer Systems (L-systems) models using live sound. Using the dynamics of L-systems, methods for visualizing and synthesizing sound are examined through recursive generation of virtual-artificial organisms. An ability to use L-systems for visualizing elements in sound is demonstrated, and vice-versa.
