František Špaček

I studied informatics in high-school, the did bachelor's on FIT. Now I'm in the second year of my master's degree. The specialization for both degrees was web engineering.

I have some experience with game development in free time and for school assignments. Despite doing web development, the graphical side is unfortunately not one of my strengths.

Project idea

The goal would be to do music synthesis from Conway's Game of life (or other cellular automata).

Conway's Game of life

The simulation would run on a fixed sized board. The tiles would be mapped to tones. For example, the tone would be higher when the tile is closer to the top.

It could have a predictable melody when the life consists of oscilators or gliders, but it could also end up as chaos.

There are similar projects, but they tend to only synthesize from a small portion of the board, like a single line. This project would use everything.
