Any fans of Charles Wuorinen or other contemporary post tonal composers? I've been studying some of his music and wondering about how he puts his music together. Anybody else study scores of serialists/12 tone or other contemporary/experimental composers?

Of course.
Who doesn't like Wuorinen? I've liked Charles Wuorinen, since I first heard his works for organ. Here's one of his contemporary students, a piece written just a few years ago.

This isn't particularly "post-tonal," but it gives an idea of Wuorinen's legacy.
In the areas of post-modern, atonal, polytonal, poly-sonorous and microtonal musical literature, there is much to be examined, of course. I'm contemplating some of Boulez's work right now.
Here's a piece he wrote rather late, for violin and electronic instrumentation I rather like, which I just heard for the first time.
