When I was a teenager, back in 1993, I played with this this genetic image generator by Karl Sims, running on a Connection Machine with 32768 processor: http://www.karlsims.com/genetic-images.html http://www.karlsims.com/genetic-images.html
(At the Pompidou Center, a contemporary art museum).
It obviously blew my young mind, with the 16 screens, the ability to select an image as the seed for the new series, the endless playability and the vertigo of not being able to ever go back and find any series again.
I don't know if a Cray would have been less or more suited to that kind of interactive installation.
But it surely was a incredible feat for the time.
