Thank you for showing the video. That was too slow and atonal sounding for me. I was waiting for a melody to develop, but that's what it was meant to be.

I think mathematicians should aspire to make music more like Kraftwerk:

IN HOC SIGNO VINCES
IN THIS SIGN CONQUER

The music should not but be repeatable at all - that's why it took that long to develop.
It is said that catchy songs only sound good when there is a certain repeat.
