Approaches to the use of technology in music composition can be organised into two categories characteristic of the concepts of bricoleur and engineer as found in Claude Levi-Strauss' "The Savage Mind". This paper begins by arguing that the engineer approach is of more importance to the future of technology in music composition. It then documents the creation of five pieces, each intimately entwined with the use of technology and utilizing an engineer approach, outlining their associated intentions, technical implementations and concerns. Finally, the ambiguous nature of the role of composer in these pieces is outlined and discussed
