Chronomorph 5.24/900902

by William Gordon

This music is written so that it plays forever and so this recording is just a sample of the music that it could produce.

The 'Chronomorph' series is derived from my work on music-theory "Designs for Composition" (1980- ) copies of which can be obtained from Philip Martin Music, York, the Scottish Music Information Centre, Glasgow, or myself Fraserford, Dunscore, Dumfries.

'900902' writes itself through a nested structure in the 'p-n' words, selecting pitches at the 'p-3-1' words from markov chains in the 'rpm' words. This continues indefinitely, although very large gaps will probably appear within 10 or 12 days.
