it's a very useful compositional technique to generate ideas, for example, the famous/infamous (take your pick) John Adams has used
this technique for a number of years with midi, and the majority of the modernist composers in the 20th century have used various ways to introduce random elements in their works. Randomness can introduce multilayered complexity - so can working with quarter tones, but that's another question...?
