Improvising rhythms with my mouth, recording 8- to 16 bar periods and 
rewriting them with an instrument is a technique I like. 

Freewheeling might be a nice tool for that. I use a dictaphone with a 
professional player to transcribe it, one of these machines with a foot 
switch.

The approach "makes the sheet less white" for me, gives the beat a natural 
gesture. The rest of the job kind of crossword puzzle hacking - something to 
get you through the night ;-)

BTW, nice to see all the music and collaboration efforts going. Good stuff!
