Yep, currently part of an exhibition of his work on display at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Barcelona. There’s also a superb video composition where there’s four simultaneous excerpts of music in film playing simultaneously.
There was an amazing exhibition at the Ian Potter Museum of Art in Melbourne in 2017 dedicated to notation called the Score: https://artguide.com.au/the-score Well worth looking for reviews with images.
The band SUMAC just posted their bass player Brian Cook’s notation for a song from their upcoming album:

What type of software do you guys use for graphic/experimental music notation? I’m thinking something like Illustrator + Sibelius/Finale should do the trick, but I’m wondering if there’s something on iPad pro that could work with the pencil and all.
i love graphic scores our group did the Ligeti piece pictured above on Ciat Lonbarde Instruments This is the dress rehearsal
Horatiu Radulescu
Stripsody (1966), Cathy Berberian
Pen/pencil/ink + paper seems to be the most effective software so far.
I am made a set of drafting template for writing the score of Marianthi Papalexandri Alexandri’s piece untitled | nº5
I’ve since started learning Illustrator, and it works great for my needs. I know pencil /ink and paper is probably the best way to do it, but I was looking for a software solution as my handwriting is, well, shite…
I use both/all. The score for “Permanent Labor” was first hand-drawn, and later laid out in Illustrator for printing:

Beautiful work! Reminds me of Oskar Fischinger’s early film strips, just a bit.
