In the traditional musical notation system, the x-axis represents the time and the y-axis represents the pitch. In case the piece is composed for more than one musician, they should read the score synchronously. What if we loosen these strict rules of the musical notation and make it more flexible? For example, if we gradually rotate the score, the function of a musical note in regard with pitch and time is altered accordingly. This interactive sound installation explores this kind of more flexible and dynamic relationships between the musical symbols and the sounds.
