          Picturesque, but not
            historically accurate, I'm sure you know. More like, where
            melody and melody collided. :)

          
          if line 1 and line 2 do not intersect in a harmonious way, is
          it still counterpoint? would anyone call it that? 

        
    Since "harmonious" is a loaded term - are we referring to a vertical
    sonority or a horizontal progression - I'll venture a "Why not ?".
    After a course in Modus Novus it's surprising what sounds
    harmonious. :)

    
    But then I'm a great lover of Schoenberg and his disciples, so my
    definition of "harmonious" is probably rather suspect.
