Aleatoricism – HiSoUR – Hi So You Are

Aleatoricism, the noun associated with the adjectival aleatory, is a term popularised by the musical composer Pierre Boulez, but also Witold Lutoslawski and Franco Evangelisti, for compositions resulting from “actions made by chance”, with its etymology deriving from alea, Latin word for “dice”. It now applies more broadly to art created as a result of such a chance-determined process.
