This is quite interesting. I remember that one some programming
newsgroup there once was a thread about how programmers often are
interested in music. I also was quite surprised to find out that many of
my fellow students (computer science) are into music and 3d-graphics.
Just recently, I realized how similar programming software and composing
music are. With both "arts" you can take the two approaches, btw: you
can have an idea and then work on it (with the idea never really
changing), and you can start with something and then - step by step -
develop something completely different.
later,
