Dear list,

While doing my *cough* "homework", I came across this.
Most interesting.

WolframTones Launched by Wolfram Research

A new system of computer-generated music known as WolframTones has
been launched by Wolfram Research. WolframTones works by taking
simple programs in the form of cellular automata and using music
theory and Mathematica algorithms to render them as music. Each
program can be viewed as defining a virtual world and WolframTones
captures that computational world as a musical composition

Enjoy.
