SlipStream - sometimes, unusual ideas can catalyze a creative 'momentum' and encourage a desire to explore new perspectives.
A use of the limitation of 16 MIDI channels, vis-à-vis random note cancellation, for a musical effect of 'convergence' - a technique creating a sense of the emergence of a smaller group of notes within the larger whole.
