Find new and more interesting ways for calculating note values. Currently it's just X+Y.

Also: rhythms!

this might tie into my idea of having each cell in the board store some of its own stats.

Cells could keep track of the number of times they were activated manually and via the game logic.

Notes could also be picked based on their relative position to the center of all of the "living" cells. So instead of using global x y coords we could use local x y coords.

Interesting ideas! Maybe there could be several ways for calculating a note value that the user can select in the params menu. I made a basic version of selectable modes for the Crow "alternative mode" with the most simple coord calculations that generate something interesting. It would be nice to have more sophisticated note generation algorithms.
