Abstract
An interactive musical application is developed for realtime improvisationwith a machine based on Lindenmayer-systems. This has been used on an installationwhose goal is to draw the attention of unexperienced users to the wealth of realtimeapplications in computer music. Issues on human computer interaction and improvi-sation grammars had to be dealt with, as well as probabilistic strategies for musicalvariation. The choice ofL-systems as a basis for machine composition is a conse-quence of their ability to create results that easily have aesthetic appeal, both in therealms of sound and image.
