Yes, although the DSP coding is too much for me (too many advanced mathematics to understand! … Although it is not necessary to say that I would like to enter that world … Who knows! 
)
By the way, after my post this afternoon about some free books that I found on the net, and the response from @chrtlnghmstr talking about his post/thread “The Library”, which inevitably made me take a look at it, since I was not aware of it … I only had enough with one of his/her links in his first post (Synapse’s), to follow that link, and from there follow another link (finding more books), and another, and another, etc., etc.,… until I found this book a few minutes ago, which seems to me to be totally related to what you say…
I have not read it yet, but for the title and the index, it seems quite interesting and perhaps even related in some way to that love equation (dsp)-coding/patching of which you talked about.
Chance? … I don’t think so, things happen and that’s it! 
Thanks for your comment … Cheers!
