Notating Mandala performances?
Posted: Sun Jul 22, 2012 11:31 pm
The new Amy Knoles video got me thinking...
If you're trying to capture and convey a Mandala performance to another person, how do you do it? I suppose you could use a different note for each zone of the Mandala drum, but what about the CC change from center to rim? How do you compose (in the traditional sense) using this new instrument? I'm reminded of this thread from the createdigitalmusic blog:

Anyway, I didn't have any answers specifically, but I was curious if any of you had thought about this at all.
