subNOTE
Isabel de Urquia Lara
Isabel de Urquia Lara's subNOTE is a project exploring graphic notation for Moog's Subharmonicon synthesizer. Analog modular synthesizers have been around since the 1960s and there is still no efficient way of notating compositions and performances for them. Their unique possibilities as musical instruments have always rendered standard musical notation insufficient. subNOTE proposes a hands-on graphic solution consisting of a stencil and a set of instructions based on codes, colors, and visuals.
As a test, the three-part composition Pilot was created and interpreted by users with no previous experience with the instrument.

I'm truly enjoying the design and layout of your blog. It's a very easy on the eyes which makes it much more enjoyable for me to come here and visit more often. Did you hire out a developer to create your theme? Exceptional work! http://www.graliontorile.com/
