sorry to spam up the list with personal stuff, but i think some of you
might like to know this.
awhile back i wrote a program that simulates a deck of the oblique
strategies by brian eno.  these cards are intended as an aid to
composition.  recently i made a better version of the program.
check it out at http://www.flash.net/~kaeru/oblique.zip
it might give you new ideas in composition.  sorry it is for win95 only.
