> btw: feed EMI Beethoven, and "she" produces Mozart. i.e., when probabilistically combining several key-signature-normalized Beethoven snippets, some of the results were identical to larger snippets of Mozart (who was, as you may have guessed, a big Beethoven fan).

I think you may mean the other way around; Mozart war 15 years older than Beethoven, and died before Beethoven's career took off.

ugh, how embarassing. you're right about the ages. I'd have to check my notes to be sure if I got the whole thing messed around, or just who was a fan of whom, but you're probably right about that part, too.
