In this project, I created a composition using JFugue in the Java programming language. JFugue is a Java library that allows users to program music in Java without having to be concerned about the complexities of MIDI. The composition depends on the current temperature and the text downloaded from Wikipedia. The tempo adjusts to the current temperature and the text retrieved from Wikipedia is converted (character by character) to ASCII and is played as chords. The composition consists of 5 different patterns and a Constants.java file where values can be adjusted. The values represent the integer value that is added to a count. That integer value depends on the current weather conditions (clear skies, clouds, drizzle, rain, thunderstorm, snow) and is setting the tempo of the piece.

More information on JFugue can be found here.
