SoDaR is an approach to research that involves software development as an active research method in the humanities. This theory describes how software development can be used as a method for research in the arts …
My research shows that creative activity is most importantly directed by how interested and involved a person is during the creative experience. It has also revealed, on closer examination, particular ways in which this experience …
Through the work Slice-Flower Andrew Soresne and Andrew R. Brown (aka: aa-cell) explore the aesthetic potential of computational expression. The work is part of a series that explore the potential of algorithms that occupy 10 …
ActivePixels is an application designed by Andrew R. Brown and Daniel Mafe, and programmed by Brown. It uses generative processes based on cellular automata-like rules relating to colours in a grid formation. Building on a …

With Andrew Sorensen, I’ve been part of the live coding duo aa-cell since 2005. In live coding, musical algorithms are coded and edited during the performance. Typically, the laptop screens are projected so the audience …
The Interactive Dynamic Stochastic Synthesizer (IDSS) is an instrument that uses stochastic synthesis. It extends the original dynamic stochastic synthesis process devised by Iannis Xenakis and provides an effective interface for interaction. The IDSS was …
The concepts and terms currently applied to discussions of algorithmic music are varied and, especially for new comers, often confusing. For example, consider the term “generative music”, which is used with different meanings by various …
