The Turmite code was written with the assistance of the following references:
- A. K. Dewdney's "Computer Recreations: Two-dimensional Turing machines and tur-mites make tracks on a plane" column in the September 1989 issue of Scientific American.
- Two articles by Ed Pegg, Jr.
- Eric W. Weisstein et al. "Turmite." From MathWorld--A Wolfram Web Resource. http://mathworld.wolfram.com/Turmite.html
- "Math Games: 2D Turing Machines." June 7, 2004. http://www.maa.org/editorial/mathgames/mathgames_06_07_04.html. (The pre-programmed Turmites were taken from this article.)
- Rudy Rucker's Artificial Life Lab.
Those wanting to learn more about Just Intonation should read David B. Doty's book, The Just Intonation Primer. The book was invaluable in writing these applets.
Real time audio synthesis by JMSL/JSyn. All Turmite code and Turmite to Just Intonation lattice mapping code is part of the Leipzig and Automatous Monk projects.
Leipzig and Automatous Monk were programmed by Paul Reiners.
