Notes & bloc-notes, first sketches: a) continuum of details, b) layers of talk and background-noises, c) montage of the 39 notated fragments
originally written for the ONCEIM orchestre, Paris, the piece was conceived for an experimental orchestra with a mixture of improvisers and score-readers.

preliminary note from the score:
theoretically the montage of the score is a version or a suggestion or a starting point. theoretically everything could be re-arranged, shortened, extended, while the general idea - density, horizontal and vertical collage - remains similar.
practically one would probably work with this version but is always free for changes in instrumentation.
