	Chronos and Chronos II (1999) are pure computer music pieces. Music computers were used to create instruments (unique sounds) and to generate MIDI sequences to play these instruments based on selected parameters including pitch class, tessitura, duaration class, dynamic level range, tempo, and percent notes vs. rests. This process quickly created several hours of sound, not music, however. My intention was to use these sequences to suggest ideas for sections of music. I culled through a large number of them and, after selecting those which had the most musical potential, manually altered MIDI events as dictated by my ear and my imagination to create fully shaped sections of music. As you probably have guessed, most of the time to create Chronos and Chronos II was spent on this shaping or refining process.
