The general concept of the album is to use the earthbound movement of animals to derive rhythms from and to serve as a source of inspiration what each individual song may be about.

Photographical movement studies by Eadweard Muybridge:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eadweard_Muybridge
The tracks are based on and ordered by the number on 'legs' each animal-species uses.
For instance the albums first track is called '0' and inspired by the peristaltic movement of worms, the song called '4' is about dogs.
The rhythms of the movements are depicted like this:
Each 'leg' that hits the ground is one note. The harder the hit, the louder the note.
To get an idea how this is done regarding the velocity or pitch of the notes and the time when an individual note 'rings', you could imagine a dog with paws dipped into paint walking over a rolled out wallpaper lying on the floor. The footprints of the dog on this wallpaper then would be used as a kind of piano-roll to transform the footprints into music.

This transformation may be done „by hand“, simply typing in the notes into a DAWs (digital audio workstation) piano-roll notation, like it was done for this production with the help of Ableton Live. Then the notation may need further tweeking, for instance it might be a good idea to hear the paws that step onto the earht at once actually at the same time.
For more complicated tasks in this context, specialized software was used or developed.
