A score comprising manipulated images of organic shapes is simultaneously sonified by performers and software. Three performers read from the same scrolling score in three different ways: Player 1 reads semantically with the notation indicating pitch vertically, duration horizontally and shade timbrally, Player 2 reads the notation as tablature, spatially indicating which region of their instrument to be stuck with shade indicating the manner in which it is stuck, and Player 3 as non-semantic graphical notation, realising the it primarily an aesthetic indication of the character of the sound to be created.
