The mathematician John Myhill was an active composer; so of his music
is on a recording primarily devoted to works of Lejaren Hiller.

Jaron Lanier, of virtual reality fame, was writing music when I was last
in touch with him, some ten years ago.

Noam Elkies is a composer; since he is a frequent contributor to sci.math
I will leave it to him to say any more than that if he wishes.

For the record, I am also a composer.
