Musical abstract comics
Iannis Xenakis, "Mycenae Alpha," visual generative score:
Gyorgi Ligeti, "Artikulation," visual listening score:
Xenakis (the digital instrument, not the composer) creates music based on shapes placed on a luminous surface:

Totem Time in Dreamland (Remix)
Alexey's post on randomization inspired me, and so I did this remix of one of my favorite Bruce Conner drawings:
I made it by first cutting up the original (taken from here, blown up and cleaned up) into twenty pieces, then recombining those pieces according to a preset formula, so I had no free choice as to which panel ended up next to which. I like the way apparent continuities between panels ended up forming anyway, even though I designed the formula specifically to make sure that no contiguous pieces from the original ended up contiguous in the remix.
