It's not passable...it's pretty obviously algorithmic.

The program does not have volition.

Why would you think that using statistics to generate a model of a piece of art (which is just data in the case of MIDI and pixels) would be "off-limits"? People have been doing this for decades.

No one knows the answer to your last two questions, but there is no indication that this program is leading there.
