definitally!
I earlier discribed experiences with "random" instruments and with 
rain drop rhythms that made me believe that we interact in some way 
with material so either the material really adapts to our "musical 
intention" (without physically touching it) or perception really does 
not respect what happens in "physical" world.
Thats why I liked Davids view that the listener is capable to turn a 
sonic event into music.
