“A new piece using surrogate techniques to generate new works from old. This time I used a recording of the loudest drops of rain falling into a swimming pool as the timing sequence and mapped the pitch sequence of Gymnopedie#1 onto that. It sounded like Brian Eno circa Ambient 1. Some notes didn’t fit and were removed. What remains is that which was unselected.”
