[CM] Performance of Scheme for Max + modular synth algorithmic etude

[Iain Duncan]

Hi, yeah I'm not surprised, I mean conceptually, it's dead simple. It was
really a study to explore how much change in the sequencing algorithm could
produce over ultra-simple base material, so not surprising to hear similar
things have been done. In that sense, I feel the piece was a success, in
that it produced a lot of variety with core cohesion from a very small set
of changes. I do plan on working on weightier material in a similar
approach later!

thanks for checking it out!
