I've recently had the recurring idea that it would be awesome if I could do this with music, I found this after a quick search: http://overtone.github.io/ (+ it's an excuse to learn clojure) Anyone have experience doing this with music, & might have some opinion on the best tools?

I have a bunch of friends studying music informatics, who are very much into algorithmic music. They never seem to stop talking about Supercollider.

One of our lecturers maintains a pretty good list of languages and tools for generative creativity: http://www.chadmckinneyaudio.com/generativecreativity

Brian Eno has released a bunch of iOS apps that generate music autonomously. http://www.generativemusic.com/
