N2 - Ghioc is a composition for saxophone and fixed media consisting of two independent collections of sections that are uneven in length. A description of the component parts of the work and of the symmetries involved in the formal structure is followed by an examination of the controlled indeterminacy present both in the instrumental part and in the fixed media. The relationship between the acoustic instrument and the fixed media is also examined and shown to be fortuitous. The continuity of the discourse in Ghioc is challenged by the fact that the sections of the work can follow each other in multiple ways but the unity of the composition is supported by robust proportions embedded in a predetermined template. The way Ghioc was realized is connected to the production of manifold or classes of compositions and some features of the software that was used for that purpose are detailed. The code is comprehensive and seamlessly combines computer-assisted or algorithmic composition and sound design. A particular world view that permeates this composition is introduced in the end and the meaning of the title elucidated.
