Summary:The article focuses on tiling rhythmic canon construction used in the visual programming language, OpenMusic (OM). It states that OM enables the creation of compositional models using a graphical interface representing a musical structure and process. It says that cyclic group algebraic models describe the combinatorial feature of the equal-tempered system. It cites various examples of the tiling rhythmic canons, such as translated and augmented canons.
