Powerful abstraction of mathematical category theory can be used to describe musical procedures and structures.

Abstract
Powerful abstraction of mathematical category theory can be used to describe musical procedures and structures. The same mathematical theory can be applied to visual shapes and their transformations, including computational applications. Since we can connect music and images through mappings, we can also connect their networks step by step, describing progressive shape modifications. We propose a new approach to music composition based on these ideas, composing music from a network of images “sonifying” each step, as well as creating a parallel sequence of visual and musical variations.
