About

Irreducible Music is an application facilitating experimentation by borrowing ideas from Chaos Theory, geological processes, Complexity Theory, fractal geometry, Functional Programming and Stephen Wolfram's idea of Computational Irreducibility. It allows users to explore musical possibilities by composing short melodic motifs and piping them through a series of transforms to hear surprising results.

Irreducible Music - Compose computationally irreducible music

Irreducible music is inspired by physicist Stephen Wolfram's idea "computational irreducibility". This means that an outcome of some processes, even if based on simple rules, is unknown and cannot be predicted. It can only be known by letting the process play out. Pipe melodies through transforms inspired by ideas from Chaos Theory, Geology and compositional techniques in a chain to get a surprising musical result and outcome. You don't know what will happen until you run the pipeline.
