Hello. I am somewhat new at Max and I need help concerning the following.

I am creating a generative electronic music composition based on the concept of biological evolution. I have this .jar program called Biogenesis. It is a simulator of evolution through natural selection where simple segmented organisms compete for resources, reproduce and thrive in a two dimensional space.

I want to turn these organisms into sound objects whose variables are determined by the apropiate integers, booleans and floats that come either directly from the program, if possible, or rather, a more practical solution might be executing the source code from MAX (the generative process is being created on max regardless of the better option) . Is this possible? if so, how do I do such thing? The program is rather light but the source code to me seems complex.

I would also like to have the visual manifestation of the program Biogenesis running at the same time as the generative musical composition (both being manifestations, one musical and one visual, of the same java executed variables being interpreted by MAX on real time).
