ArtWonk is an interactive program for creating MIDI music and graphics algorithmically. Not a set of canned me-too riffs or rules, but an open ended palette of composing modules to powerfully boost your creativity.
Bio2MIDI 2.1 Converts the text of a DNA or protein sequence to a MIDI file which you can play, or import into any MIDI sequencer for further processing. Choose to listen to the sequences as 4-note DNA bases, or as 20-note protein amino acids, or both at once.
Description: ArtWonk is a MIDI and graphics program that produces MIDI music and paint graphics based on algorithmic rules that you interactively create by connecting modules (graphical objects that represent functions and processes) in real time, adjusting the parameters as you go, in an interactive drag and drop environment especially designed to be fast to learn, fast to use. But ArtWonk did not achieve its ease of use by dumbing it down. Quite the contrary. With a starting palette of over 400 built in modules and functions, ArtWonk is one of the most powerful algorithmic composing programs available.
ArtWonk will drive MIDI synthesizers, soft synths and sound cards directly, effectively "playing" them in real time; it will also record directly to a standard MIDI file. Real time paint graphics can be created and manipulated on the fly; and both music and paint can be created together as a synesthetic whole.
ArtWonk is the successor to a long line of graphical, modular, and interactive algorithmic composing programs created by John Dunn that were inspired by the big analog modular synthesizers, going back to one of the first if its kind ever produced for MIDI, MusicBox, released to the public domain in 1986.
While you can easily create analog synthesizer style step sequencers with ArtWonk, it goes far beyond its sequencer roots, to give you algorithmic composing tools of all kinds. ArtWonk is essentially a program language specialized for creating music and visuals, intended to be used by artists and musicians. It is not a text based language like Java, C, or Lisp; instead it is a visual direct manipulation language that does not require you to take weeks to months to learn. You simply select graphical modules from a pop up menu, drag and drop their connections and interactions, listening to the results in real time as you build and modify your piece.
SoftStep 3.2 An interactive program for creating algorithmic MIDI music on your soft synth or sound card interactively in real time. Not a set of canned me-too riffs or rules, but an open ended palette of

NeoPaint: Great Looking Graphics? - You Can Do It!

A great response to the real-life drawing challenges
