I say:

Yes, Creighton has (so far) documented his system quite poorly, and thus
it remains quite obscure. However, that doesn't make it worthless. On the
contrary,
the system seems to be able to generate many "hits" to diverse fields
of mathematics. See e.g.:
http://www.research.att.com/~njas/sequences/?q=author%3Adement+extension%3A

http://www.research.att.com/~njas/sequences/?q=author%3Adement+ref%3A

(I think this is much more worthwhile than just random playing with decimal
digits,
although I'm neither castigating clever base-related sequences.)

Is this the (almost) same song as the soundtrack in the video?
It would be nice to know what is the mathematical algorithm behind it.
