This paper details the motivations, design, and realization of Sustainable, a dynamic, robotic sound installation that employs a generative algorithm for music and sound creation. The piece is comprised of seven autonomous water gong nodes that are networked together by water tubes to distribute water throughout the system. A water resource allocation algorithm guides this distribution process and produces an ever-evolving sonic and visual texture. A simple set of behaviors govern the individual gongs, and the system as a whole exhibits emergent properties that yield local and large scale forms in sound and light.
