I find it's especially cool that the patterns for timing and loudness are independent from each other.

Reminds me of one of Tool's songs that follows a fibonacci sequence.

Lateralus, IIRC. At least, on that album if not the title song. See also Radiohead's Pyramid Song, which has palindromic rhythm patterns.

One of our songs has a rhythm where the beats are in groups of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 4, 3, 2 and 1 but fit into a 4-4 timing. It works because of the lengths of the pauses in between.

Sorry, man. You may be all cool to scientists and stuff, but we can get the same fractal whatever-stuff out of a drum machine. We'll drop you off at the bus station if you want. You can even keep your tour t-shirt.

It seems like in a few more years of this type of research, that will actually be true. Drum pad with a few samples set to "human 1/f float" and you wouldn't be able to perceive a difference.

It'll sound like somebody's actually having fun.

The question isn't really if it can be done, but whether it's worth doing. At a certain point of complexity in programming a drum machine, it becomes easier to just play it live. To me, the strengths of drum machines lie in their ability to do things humans *can't* do. See Squarepusher for example, or Aphex Twin.
