Scores for one person to be performed for themselves. Instructions on the right, tracing/drawing on the left. The sound of the drawing is the music.

With immense gratitude to A. Shipley & to the Cité.

Note to Performer and Reader:

Each spread is a musical piece. The left page is the score. The right page contains the corresponding instructions for the score. Writing the score is the performance of the score. Trace the drawing on vellum according to its instructions using a traditional wooden pencil. You are the performer as well as the sole audience. The sound of drawing is the musical event. Start wherever you like, though it pays to be methodical. Some scores contain multiple layers of drawings—each with a characteristic mark—execute these layers separately. Freely vary tempo and rest duration. Optionally, the sound may be amplified using a contact microphone and speaker. Listen carefully.
