How random is random? Nature is a random flow organized and intelligent. The music on this cd was inspired by the idea of chaos and randomness. The machines interacted with my compositions and with each other, showing creativity. I integrated random elements (LFO's) that were able to change my compositions while recording, giving the music a "flowing" touch. Within this process the machines and their user have the same importance. The change of a sequence, the order of patterns, the moment when a certain effect was chosen, and many other parameters were changed and taken by machines. By this way, nature was integrated in the compositions. Nature is within the machine as no artifact can deny the existance of randomness.
