His codebase serves is a great learning tool for things like extending the editor, using gpgpu for generative geometry in the scene, etc.

The other nice thing about the project is that the author works for Unity, and has a very decent understanding of how to 'get things done' in code. Without this code, assigning midi CC/note numbers was quite laborious, and every time the editor runs/stops, all MIDI controlled values were reset to 0. Since I work on Windows, I also had to change the MIDI input class, and the Microphone/Line input class (so I can feed analyzed live audio as parameters into the scene). These additions make it a lot easier to configure midi support for a scene, and/or to configure the scene in a particular state. I had to make several changes to the MIDI listener framework though most importantly I added an editor window that eases the process of assigning MIDI CC/Note numbers (incl midi learn) and I implemented 'play state persistence' of everything in the scene. You can use this framework with any Unity scene, it is not bound to this particular scene.

What is really nice is that this incorporates a framework for listening to incoming MIDI messages - so you can control whats going on in the scene with any MIDI controller. Several kinds of postprocessing fx can be turned on/off as well. It shows an astronaut falling through a generative tunnel, with different kinds of debris flying by. Here is a good project to get you started:
