Interesting, I didn't know about Grammatical Programming:
it seems much more suited to my purposes (the generation of
interesting 3d forms) than Koza style genetic programming.
I've been working on a Koza style GP system that with a
few small changes could become a grammatical system for
the last few months. So, yes. Count me in!
