The agents, taking the form of long pillar-like sculptures, generate and evolve a soundscape in response to one another and to the presence of human participants. They respond in three ways: (1) by altering their generated sounds, (2) , Heterogenesis and machine. [http://ccastellanos.com/projects/heterogenesis/ More info] | ||
