So far these are the people that I know are playing: Zach M. (player1), Nelson H. (player2), Greg L. (player3), Melissa D. (player4), Adam P. (player5), and Zack J (player6).

Thus, I have six scores here on this page.

If other people are interested in playing, then those people should contact me so that I can prepare a score for them.

Key:

(The following symbols, which are used in the score, represent the volume setting for each instance of sound. Their values are relative in relation to the space in which the composition is performed: if the composition is performed in a busy park then the dynamic values should be adjusted accordingly, and likewise if the composition is performed in a public library.)

BA: This stands for Barely Audible. The player should focus on making their sound-source ride the fence between audible and inaudible. Do not be afraid about slipping into inaudibility. Picture, if you will, a one foot voice.

Q: This stands for Quiet. The player should focus on keeping the sound audible, but its presence should not be forwardly noticeable, also the player should not slip into inaudibility. Picture, if you will, a three foot voice.

A: This stands for Audible. The player should take care in not letting their sound source become intrusive. Although the sound should be audible, it should also be ignorable. Picture, if you will, a five foot voice.

>A: This stands for Barely Louder than Audbile. The player should at no point overwhelm the other sounds, or encompass the space with their sound source. This dynamic range should not be read as “as loud as I want.” This dynamic range falls far short of garnering all attention within the space. Picture, if you will, a clearly perceptible five foot voice in a room of five foot voices.

Brief Explanation:

Let’s look at player one’s first instance of sound to see what the score actually means. Player one’s first instance of sound is: 16′52″ A. This means that for 16′52″ player one will produce a sound with a dynamic value of audible as described above.

Please remember to bring a stopwatch so that you can time yourself. I will supply a hard-copy of the score for each player on the night of the performance.
