Abstract: ‘Selective Retention: Composing through Queries and Graphs’ reflects on composing through software systems while focusing on reinterpreting musical materials through computational methods. The exposition examines two projects that utilise software tools as temporal portals, merging algorithms with composition to create new musical contexts. It highlights the evolving relationship between these tools and their source materials, emphasising a process of iterative approaches and adaptation. The text also explores the emergent nature of creative intention and the importance of addressing local details in sound and coded data. Within the exposition, software applications are exposed, the ideas behind them are discussed, and examples of music composed with them are presented. /* rules to make button only show up in META */.download-accessible { display:none;}.meta-right-col .download-accessible { display: inline-block; padding: 9px; margin-bottom:25px; border: 1px solid black; background-color:white;} Download Accessible PDF keywords: Computer Music, Generative Algorithms, Sound Analysis, Data-Driven Sound, Algorithmic Composition, Network Models in Music., Artistic reserach
