For my final project, I decided to take ideas from Assignments 1 and 4. Similar to what I did in Assignment 1, I randomly generated the rhythm for the bass (though the pitches are not random). I did this by using a random number generator to determine the number of eighth notes between each note. Additionally, something new is that I randomly generated some of the chord roots.

As for Assignment 4, this piece was written to represent the antagonist of a D&D campaign I'm writing, who is an elusive serial killer. Though he seems well put together, there is definitely something off and unstable about him, and I attempted to capture that feeling in this piece. It is supposed to be slow and jazzy, but it is in 5/4, the bass has a weird rhythm (thanks to the random generation), and the harmony tends to be very dissonant.
