Re: [microsound] algorithmic hardware

If you program patterns on synths, which in turn trigger other synths 
in various ways, you can end up with some unpredictable results.

This isn't really much different to programming an algorithm.  You're 
still dealing with chains of events - you could think of patterns on 
your step sequencers as subprograms, for example.  I love it when 
hardware/software sequencing becomes chaotic, you can draw chaos out of 
deterministic systems.
