AW: fractal loops (was: keeping loops interesting)

And you're right about that. It's not fractal, and Kris' example with the
eight tracks of mobius is not fractal, either.

Why? I do not see the scale invariant relationship in white noise here, 
it's
simple an ergodic (or almost statistac) thing. What about a perfect 
sawtooth
wave? Repetitions of the basic sine at every multiple of it...

But here I don't see how it is different to my (first) example with the two
voices...
