In the 18.x studies, series of sounds are arranged regularly in space and in the parametric sound space. The rules that generate pitches, spectra, time and location of the individual sounds are very simple but are chosen in such a way that structures emerge out of the regular stream. In all the studies, the organization of the pitches is the same: it follows the same principle as the arrangement of the seeds, leaves or thorns of certain plants. The arrangement of sound in space is realized with the Ambisonics surround system. In the different studies, duration, loudness, spectrum, location and movement of the individual sounds and various parameters of the arrangement of the pitches and of the density are varied.
