There is something about the noises of things like R2D2 from Star Wars that can just make a person smile and laugh, but also there are things about the sounds that are simply put as cool.
I listened to "Dialogue" by Tenney, and was pleasantly reminded of the R2D2 effect as i will call it. There are what seem like random pitched and timed note sequences that make up the phrases of such music.
However cool all that is, that wasn't the main point of this. The main sounds of this include a rhythmic background that comes and goes, and creeping whistle noises making it reminiscent of the forbidden planet and other scary movie parts but not for long because they are quickly interupted by the above mentioned R2D2 randomization.
What i got from this was basically a feeling of curiosity, which I think is natural when listening to music that both stimulates lurky and random things in my head.
