A while ago a Singaporean taxi driver asked me what a UK hawker centre lunch might cost. I explained that there aren't any. He asked what office workers ate, and I explained the concept of Meal deals. And he looked at me with such a powerful combination of pity and revulsion.

This is true: high budget movies are shit. Just TV Trops can articular it infinitely better than Ciro Santilli can.

Except that instead of machines, you have separate programs. One such typical link is:
- from a MIDI source, e.g. vmpk or a MIDI editor with playback like Ardour
- to a synthesizer like FluidSynth or ZynAddSubFX
The advantage of this setup is that separate programs can collaborate to make complex sounds.
The disadvantage of this setup is that it makes it very hard to reproduce results, you basically need a Docker image with the exact same version of everything. And some script to launch and connect all programs correctly.
Some composition systems like LMMS reduce that problem by having synthesizers as plugins, so that you don't have to setup any connections yourself.
Basically a synonym for Lie group which is the way of modelling them.

- odd permutation: -1
- even permutation: 1
- not a permutation: 0. This happens iff two more more indices are repeated
