This article starts from the assumption that musi-cology needs methods borrowed from philology for studying computer music. The analysis of the cre-ative and revision process that John Chowning car-ried out in the realization of Stria (1977) is made possible by textual criticism and interpretation.

One of Chowning's most famous pieces is called Stria (1977). It was commissioned by IRCAM for the Institute's first major concert series called Perspectives of the 20th Century . His composition was noted for its inharmonic sounds due to his famous FM algorithm and his use of the golden mean (1.618...) in music.

Stria (1977) – as most of electroacoustic music produced in the beginning of digital synthesis techniques – was fixed on a mass storage disk with a strong background noise caused by the use of low sample rates (12.8 and 25.6 kHz). In 1988, John Chowning published a commercial CD containing Phoné, Turenas, Stria and Sabelithe.

Chowning’s first compositions, Sabelithe (1971), Turenas (1972), and Stria (1977), are musical reflections of his research interests and technical discoveries. Phonē (1981), which was the fruit of a collaboration with IRCAM, expanded frequency modulation synthesis to the singing voice.
