Hmmm - digital music is bad but digital "paintings" (a laughable term in
this case considering the work of real artists who work in digital
painting) aren't?
These are "paintings" from his website

maybe he's right - because laughter is the best medicine....

datareduced music
I would hardly call his little web page "scientific", though he seems
to try to make it sound that way. He seems to have skipped about 4/5
steps of the scientific process. I found this good for a laugh, but
much else. I hope his attempt at using a few technical terms doesn't
fool anyone.
Maybe we can join Mr. Windler Teachmaster's religion, too: Logologie.

Sounds like someone to put your faith in during these data-reduced days
in which we're rotting.
