a homemade drum loop based on that hexadecimal thing →[More:]each digit was converted to binary, "0"s became kick drums and "1"s became snare hits, with a little jazz ride cymbal, 180bpm. if anyone can use this in their own stuff, feel free.

That's very cool. I wonder what other mathematical thing that could be re purposed into some other instrumental loop is properly related to the Hex string that this is based on. And, if you could do that -- create and mix tracks of music based on related mathematical concepts -- would they be recognized as hamonizing by listeners because of their inherent math-based reationships?

Or should I just go to bed now?
