Neale Morison's Music - Composing with Computers

In 2007 I audited the MIT course 21M.361, Composing with Computers. Below are some compositions created as assignments for this course. Preparation of some kind may be required before listening. Try just waiting to hear what happens next. If you approach this stuff the wrong way, it may sound like random noise.
