NOTATION

MUSIC: REVERSE-ENGINEERED NOTATION: INVERTED EVENT-SCORES: TRACE-SCORE

RECORDS PROCESSION OF ATTENTION

*MIDI>IMAGE + IMAGE>MIDI TRANSLATION

TONE + RHYTHM + VOICE : TERTIARY HIERARCHY

TEMPO: FROM BODY

PITCH: FROM TEXT READING : MIDI>IMAGE

AS A PROCESS OF AMPLIFICATION THROUGH MEDIA

MOVEMENT: BODY > VIDEO > STILL FRAME > GLYPH TRACING

DIRECTIONS FOR IMPROVISATION: TEXT > PLAY

CREATE SCHEMATIC-DIAGRAMS OF RECORDING SCENARIOS (ALA SOUND-OBJECTS)

NESTED HIERARCHIES OF NOTATION

VOICE CONTENT > MUSIC CUES > MOVEMENT CUES > CONDUCTION > MINUTIAE

META-SCORE FOR COSMOLOGICAL CONTEXT (TIME)

PHYSICAL TIME IS CORRELATED TO AN ABSTRACTLY TUNED CLOCK TO CREATE AN OPERA-SPECIFIC TIME SCHEME (IN-GAME TIME)

CORRELATED TO META-TUNING OF THE OMNI-CHORD: CONSTANT TONE

INTERVIEWING SELF FROM VARIOUS PERSPECTIVES

META-FORM

TEXT>IMPROVISED MUSIC>BODY MOVEMENT>NOTATION>CONDUCTION

TEXT : WRITTEN POETICS OF THE SUBJECT : MENTAL IMAGERY

IMPROVISED MUSIC : INTUITED AFFECT OF THE GROUP : BODY IMAGERY

BODY MOVEMENT : TRANSLATED AFFECT (CEREBRA/INTUITED) FOR ONE OR MANY: FORMAL GLYPH

NOTATION : ABSTRACT GLYPH COMPOSITION FROM MANY TO ONE : DIRECTIONS FOR SPEAKING
