Christopher Bailey has created "A Database System for Organizing Musique Concrete." The database system allows one to catalogue sounds according to a number of musical parameters. Imagining abstract musical gestures, one can then use the system to realize the gestures with different combinations of found sounds. The system itself is programmed in Filemaker and Bailey uses this engine to create musical material which he has manipulated into a composition for 5.1 surround sound.
