Abstract
In this paper we present a new approach to dynamically breed
artificial structures. By embedding swarm agents into the framework of formal
grammars we build a bridge between symbol-based production systems and
threedimensional, real-time construction procedures that are driven by moving,
reactive, autonomous agents. In a small number of simulations we focus on the
swarm agent abilities to coordinate with one another, and to respond to the
environment. First results allow for a cautious, yet optimistic look at
possible fields of application and future work.
