Summary/Abstract: The paper argues for the unity of art and science. Dedicated to music readers, the first part, written in review style has a relatively technical content, well systematized introduction in the field of sonication - data representation by sound, with many references, emphasizing the central paradigm of sonication - the correspondence between characteristic data parameters input with parameters specific to the output sound sequence. In the field prepared in the first part, the second part written in essay style is developed, dedicated to the comparison between the composition activity and that of the programmer. The evolution of sonication algorithms from parametric to structural correspondence is highlighted, both technically and the impact at the cognitive-emotional level.
