hrmm, yes, but you must understand that HOW something is made IS
interesting to a lot of people. idm is a medium of creative
expression, be it musical or logical. sound is a good medium for
experimenting with complex maths. some very fine music (esp.
classical) was composed merely as an experiment in this 'meaningless
shite' ; in an instrumental composition, how do you determine what
has 'meaning' ? see my above post on intention. you also seem to
neglect the concept that perhaps the artist's intention was merely
make some music in an interesting way.
