Given the tight deadline (I signed up last minute), I decided to just build a musical sandbox and let the computer bounce around in it. I think it came out fairly well, all things considered. It mixes elements of different genres. Ends abruptly (for clean looping) -- the "live" version will happily jam along with itself forever.

@rANGEL, Thanks!
@sinewave: That's largely coincidence. I mixed it on laptop speakers and honestly don't know what the recording sounds like.
@starpause: I agree, there are definitely some stretches that work better than others. I started chopping up some of those to create a more deliberate melody and structure, which would have resulted in a much better song, but I decided for this first entry that the recording should convey what the machine is actually producing (which is endless variations on a one measure loop).
Also, I got stuck in my head with that and was never going to finish it. 
Great to see you at midihack, notice I commented on your piece back in jan!
