There's a newer version of the track:

MIDI from PureData->ZynAddSubFx -> jack_capture -> oggenc -q5

I would really really like to receive some feedback especially from those interested in the generative technique. Even negative.

I like it. And I _am_ interested (more in the algorithms used than the
PD implementation though, I've never really learnt PD).

Each part (they're ten, one for each instrument) has a n/m chances to be triggered every n seconds.

When a part is triggered it starts a metronome of n bps that - at every beat - choose a random note from a list (some notes are repeated to have more chances to be picked), but each note has also n/m chances to be played.

That's all.

So, part of the copyright of the *improvisation* is owned by those who wrote the algorithm for generating random values. :-) Luckily, I guess mine has been written by the gnu folks.

And some negative feedback: set the Content-Type to application/ogg!
Firefox doesn't understand that it's supposed to open text/plain files
in XMMS.

The easiest way (if you're using Apache) is to add a .htaccess file in
the directory containing the Ogg file with this line in it:

AddType application/ogg ogg

Are you sure the fault is not on your side? My website is hosted by a commercial provider. I believe their apache is already configured and in fact I can succesfully download an ogg file from my own website using firefox and get it recognized as an ogg audio file.

Let me know, otherwise I'll add the line to my home directory .htaccess.
