I do, though it's called Omega now. I'd really be curious to know if they use any of its algorithmic composing capabilities. It wouldn't suprise me at all, especially for some of the weirder rhythm tracks. Using algorithmic composers to create IDM (or is that AIDM?) makes a lot of sense to me on a philosophical level. Anyone else around here dabble with that kind of stuff? How about adding random events to MIDI sequences? You want less predictablity - remove the human from some of the decision making processes.
