Abstract
Repetitive structures in the soprano saxophones, violas/synthesizer andvioloncelli in the full score of Philip Glass’Fa ̧cades[4] are investigated assimilatingsimilar music bars with the axial-diagonal self-affine cartoons as defined by Mandel-brot [7], [8] to construct very general multi-fractals.Transition matrices of order 1 Markov chains are used to simulate surrogates ofphrases of the same piece, to investigate whether in this minimalist setting we ob-tain (i) an exact reproduction of the original, or (ii) something that though differentsounds a pleasant variation.
