ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for composing a musical rhythm whereby an initial generation rhythm population having a plurality of individual rhythms is provided, and a new generation rhythm population is repeatedly generated from a preceding generation rhythm population, beginning with the initial generation rhythm population. In order to evolve the rhythm populations, individual rhythms of a rhythm population of interest are evaluated according to a predetermined evaluating function to thereby determine a rhythm valuation, and genetic operations are performed on the rhythm population of interest in a manner such that the rhythm valuation will generally increase with each new generation rhythm population. The evolving operation is stopped when a predetermined terminating condition is met.
