I wonder if anyone will ever understand music well enough to create an algorithm that produces music.

That's already been done.
I think artificially-generated music lacks soul.

I think it will closely approach the mystery of the octaves. May be music is a more tangible manifestation of a deeply intangible cosmic creative principle.

I would like to hear different compositions to see what the variance in 'creativity'.
