Next on my "to do" list was some internal hashing that I needed to add to make checking for duplicate licks more efficient. Not much to directly show about that but now that it's in place it's easy to generate large sets of mutated licks. Here's a 3d entropy plot of about 10,000 licks.

It can be hard to figure out what's going on in a list like that. If I printed the score for that with about 30 licks per page it would result in over 300 pages of licks to sort through. Here's were network graphs can help a bit. This one shows the probability of note transitions and beginning and ending notes of licks. It's interesting to see how the Root, P5 and P4 show up front and center in the graph.

And you can see what count patterns appear in all the bars and the probability of transitioning from one count pattern to another.
