Music Composed from Stock Market Data

Oscillation Productions LLC is sellling a CD called "Playing the Market," an album consisting of compositions based on stock market and economic data.

The music on "Playing the Market" is structured based on source data such as stock returns, trading volume, interest rates, inflation, unemployment, government debt, consumer confidence, and related financial algorithms.

The resulting sound is something definitely within the category of atonal music, but not quite what you'd hear from an Arnold Schoenberg composition, though not quite something from a John Cage recording, but perhaps something in between.

"Fibonacci's Random Walk, Part I" is a soothing piano composition, while "Industrial Century" sounds like background music from an Alfred Hitchcock thriller.
