In theory you should be able to convert sheet music from a PDF to MIDI with something like this (I did a quick Google search)

Once you have a MIDI[1] file, you can do a lot of interesting things with your music, such as generating or modifying notes with random values for pitch, velocity etc.
Food of the Gods was an amazing read but IMHO the audio lectures of Terence McKenna completely changed the way I look at the world.
Same with Terrance Mackena. All these people who preach psychedelics don't end up accomplishing much besides writing profusely about psychedelics.
As far as Terrence McKenna is concerned, I think the man accomplished a little more than writing profusely about psychedelics. He was a brilliant lecturer. There are probably 100+ of his talks available on YouTube. The topics of those talks often go far beyond mere rambling about psychedelics.
Many refugees are also living in fear of arson attacks. I am not sure if that's the type of free accommodation you would opt for.
I remember meeting Chris Huelsbeck on one of those videogame trade shows in Cologne, Germany. He was a really humble and friendly guy, who'd chat with anyone. I was lucky to buy one of his first CDs, which featured most of the Turrican tracks. Also, thanks to the Factor 5 programmers who wrote the Amiga version !! Insanely talented, I still look up to them these days.
I have to agree with you on all accounts about Jenkinsson. I knew he was building his own patches with Reaktor but was not aware that he built his own software, which is indeed unique and crazy.
This is great stuff !! Did you actually get a chance to meet Tom Jenkinson as part of your work ?
