Today we’re using techniques from _Generating Sound and Organizing Time_ to make an algorithm used by Mark Fell on the album _Intra._ Mark describes this algorithm in his book _Structure and Synthesis: The Anatomy of Practice._
I didn’t mention it in the video, but you could use the gate list that the JavaScript produces with subdiv~ or ~ from Rhythm and Time Toolkit. For more info, check out or
