[silence] Question on Composition

[Patrick OReilly]

Hello Silencers,
I figure I better introduce myself first if I'm going ask question.
my name is Patrick O'Reilly, I'm a teacher / student / percussionist / composer studying and working in New York City and I've remained rather silent myself receiving information on this mailing list for about a year now, i must say its been very helpful to my understanding of John Cage and his work.  

 
 
are there any composers that focus their work on the idea of combining many ideas into small amounts of time? in other words: assuming a broom stick represents a piece of music, this type of composition being perhaps the isle in home depot where they keep all of the broom sticks. 
 
if so who, if not then why?
if this makes no sense, ignore it
 
and Happy New Year!
 -Patrick O'Reilly
