stop me if you've heard this one before (more thoughts on cardew's 'treatise')

I've put the realisation of 'treatise' on hold while i wait for a physical copy of the score to arrive in the post and decided to have a look at some random sections from his working notes (published in 'cornelius cardew: a reader' pub. copula) and found something very intriguing:

6th march '63: (written on the score) NB the sound should be a picture of the score, not vice versa

this has led me to consider making two versions of the pages i select to work on with the second based upon sound produced by the data contained in scans of the pages.
