no, i'm not saying you're wrong - i'm sure autechre think fractals are a
really cool way to make music; aphex twin thought it was cool using pictures
to make music, and has used them in a track, and fractals are a probably
easier way to do it.

oh, it's very alien, and oddly enough, comfortably familiar =) i personally
think that if fractals were used, they likely sampled sections they liked,
instead of re-arranging fractals to create entire songs (which would be even
more unlikely, although the repeating patterns of fractals could very well
explain the rhythms ;) )

right?
oh, i'm here for the discussion as well. i was merely stating that the
selection of the Wire you quoted referenced the cover and liner art of said
release, and did not make reference to the music.
i personally like using individual programs to create odd sounds, and then
use those sounds in various degrees to create something, but not the one
program for one track. i'm sure that autechre are similar, since they
stated in that interview which was posted recently that they have some mates
which get sucked into software and don't end up doing anything (cough aphex
cough).
---
actually, on a somewhat different tangent, i've noticed that aphex, who used
to be known for using modified hardware to create all his tracks, really got
into computers and has since released significantly less music, whilst
someone that used to be compared to him - mike paradinas - still uses
basically all hardware, and is quite prolific.
this could be that having hardware requires more money, or it could mean
absolutely nothing at all. but i've gotten sucked into a couple programs
and was more interested with all the weird things i could do than actually
producing anything. it of course bears no point in bringing up, but i
wonder if any other artists have experienced this (or can be presumed to
experience this).
cheers,
