Re: Alternative approaches to arrangement/composition?

I think the loop is an excellent process for composing; I find the 
integration with say, a pop structure can be a little daunting 
technologically, but beyond that I find it quite helpful.

Subject: Alternative approaches to arrangement/composition?

I generally loop guitar, get the skeleton of the drums/bass, then
arrange via adding/subtracting.

Does anyone have any different philosophies/methods that they use for
arranging and composing? Borrowing techniques from different fields,
maybe something like compositions based on "game of life" or art, or
whatever.

Sorry for being vague, but I don't even know what exists.
