Musical notation indicates the amount of time with symbols. Also called a score, it becomes a starting point for performances with different textures.
A note is a unit of time. ‘Two Vertices’, for example: two people holding each end of the thread move while controlling the thread‘s tension and relaxation. The straight line created by up-and-down or side-to-side movements extends to the flexible line made when one folds his/her body and goes under the tightened thread.
Units gather and become a phrase or a whole music. Time is included in performing each unit.
Isochronic map visualizes the amount of movement time instead of the distance from one point to another.
The movements of body operating in the space draw a map of time.
For the units that are variable by nature, a score written in verbal language may be the only possible notation. At the same time, the forms created by the units are not dependent on the score, which, as a necessary and sufficient condition, throws arrow marks in all directions into the void where different forms are drawn each time.
Any performance of ________ is ________.
An activity of iteration leaves a trace and that trace, in its turn, can lie in wait as a dormant or sleeping incorporeal entities as in the case of a lost proof to a theorem gathering dust in an old monastery, or the Dead Sea Scrolls in a forgotten cave. (Levi Bryant, The Strange Ontology of Incorporeal Machines: Writing)
Incorporeal entities are ambushed. From one second to infinity.
