Genesis as Algorithm

Genesis as Algorithm is a Python-based MIDI composition project organized into 74 Thematic Units. The work combines numerical matrices, te'amim-inspired melodic modules, and a four-channel polyphonic architecture to generate a structured algorithmic musical output. It is intended as an artistic and research-oriented software artifact for archival publication and reproducible use.

Abstract

Genesis as Algorithm is a Python-based MIDI composition project organized into 74 Thematic Units. The work combines numerical matrices, te'amim-inspired melodic modules, and a four-channel polyphonic architecture to generate a structured algorithmic musical output. It is intended as an artistic and research-oriented software artifact for archival publication and reproducible use.
