Don't even get me started on music.
My opinion on this is, "Inspiration comes around when it wants to, I can't just call it up and say come over."
And whenever I've got a composition I'm proud of, it's always incomplete.
Whenever I'm inspired with my music it's always because I've got "visual imagery" in my mind. Like when I'm experimenting with the delay, and I'm seeing spiders, and spider webs, and "holographic images".
I wish I was Spielberg, and had billions to blow on cameras and film, then maybe I could create the visual images to go with the music.

Check out " The Ultimate Melody", a short story by Arthur C. Clarke. A scientists, obsessed with music and the notion that catchy tunes might somehow fit in well with the human brainwave patterns, develops a system with a feedback loop to find the ultimate melody, that melody so perfect that all composers have been striving to achieve for centuries. Unfortunately, his system finds it and drives the scientist insane because it "would form an endless ring in the memory circuits of the mind. It would go round and round forever, obliterating all other thoughts". (I hope the link works, it is from Google Book Search)

It can be totally expressed in mathmatical terms. I tell 'em, "It's all about the hook." Regardless of genre. It seems this chap found the perfect "hook". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hook_(music)
