9. This music is composed entirely by Fractal / Generative means by PC. What does this mean? Instant composition? Can a computer compose music? What advantages are there to this method? Each note was indeed generated by software running on a computer. As to whether the computer composed the tune, The answer lies somewhere between "yes" and "no"... The various software generates MIDI sequences based upon the iterations of mathematical formulae. However, almost every aspect of what is produced is configurable by the composer. Not so much a concern with each individual note, but a bit broader "brush" on this musical canvas. A process of "auditioning" passages, altering to suit, cyclical in nature... Unattended composition this is not - (though possible) - as with any other type of music, the involvement of the composer is an essential element if it is to *work*. The computer generates the sequences. I either approve or alter parameters till I approve of what is generated. There is no composition without my involvement, my selection of what works and what is discarded. I choose the instruments and "audition" till I like what I hear...so, perhaps it is a partnership between me and the software, myself making the final decisions and tweaking everything during the process. Advantages : A democratisation - with computers, anyone can now make music for their enjoyment. Ideas - as computer- generated MIDI sequences can often yield surprises, perhaps this is a great method for getting new ideas that the additional musician can then adapt to be realized by "real" musicians.
