The conventional wisdom holds that chance operations abolish "glue" (Henry Cowell's term, but often invoked by Cage).  That idea rests on presuming that statistical independence governs how  the operations place musical events within the music framework.  Well, not here.

As x and y coordinatize the Euclidean plane, time and pitch coordinatize musical space as constructed say on a piano roll.  But there's a difference: the plane enjoys rotational symmetry, but its far from clear how one would even compare the magnitude of a time duration with musical interval.

Take a circle and randomly choose 41 chords (meaning, sorry, line segments that connect two points on the circumference).  That makes 820 pairs of chords, but only above one third of the pairs will intersect (meaning, inside the circle).  Those roughly 270 points of intersection, plotted on a virtual piano roll, become the notes of a variation.  The piece consists of 10 variations.  Each note/point sits on two lines, so each line will contain an average of about 13 notes.  This is the emergent clue.  Depending on the slope of the line segment, it will sound as a chord, a broken chord, an arpeggio, a line slowly ascending or descending, or even a pedal tone.  Of course the points/notes on a line don't sit evenly spaced - their position gets determined by the random dispositions of the other chords.  But every note is overdetermined -- by design it sits on two lines and thus helps describe two different musical figures.

Empirically, the 88 note space of the piano (so 352 distinct pitches by the use of eighth-tones) feels like one minute.  Too much faster and the emergent shapes get compressed into illegibility, too much slower and the notes get unglued by the strain on short-term memory.

The accompanying graphic explores a similar construction, but in the visual realm.

It's no mystery
Yeah

Your touch, it makes me higher
Our hearts, burn like fire
Together we'll find a way
Forever, day by day

Come back, knock on my door
I'll knock on your door
Knock on your door

I'M A KNOCKIN'

Step into my mind, where thoughts take flight in form
Not words on paper, nope, visions that weather the storm
Close your eyes, picture it, colors burstin' on the scene
From mountain peaks to city streets, a mental movie screen

Close your eyes, picture clear, future whispers in your ear
Break the chains, rewrite the script, unlock the power, get a grip
See it bold, success unfolds, my  mind's the map, story told
Visualize, rise above, claim your dream, embrace the love

It's not wishing, plant the seed, belief ignites, sets you free
Watch it grow, let knowledge flow, exceed what you used to knowr
Visualize, dream, achieve, rise above, and truly believe
and truly believe

Step into my mind, where thoughts take flight in form
Not words on paper, nope, visions that weather the storm
Close your eyes, picture it, colors burstin' on the scene
From mountain peaks to city streets, a mental movie screen

Close your eyes, picture clear, future whispers in your ear
Break the chains, rewrite the script, unlock the power, get a grip
See it bold, success unfolds, my  mind's the map, story told
Visualize, rise above, cla im your dream, embrace the love
