Well, and we're also working with bits and bytes at root. Everything
else is artificially created.

Still, it's fascinating to consider how we all bring the total being
into the act of making music. For me that has meant learning to do more
by listening rather than by reading scores, for example.

Someone mentioned using the visual UI to organize and select the raw
sonic materials for the final composition--the process of choosing among
them. This is most certainly a very different thing when you do it all
from meory. Even good file organizing strategies don't yield the same
functionality--though they might come close, I suppose.
