6/30
computer program almost in running shape
house not coming along well — sold furnace which is good
end of June — time to figure accounts
something I wanted from the library
wandering
ideas for computer program
bits and scraps of paper all over — threw some away I guess —
put the rest into a folder and file somewhere — compositional aspects
4 movement titles
quartet
X diamond was a good title for other ideas but don’t know what to call squares
composition for squares?
idea to use sets analogous to 12 tone music
the interplay of choice and chance with the set structure somewhere in between
movement 1)
squares in center —
centered in quadrants or centered on axes
determined by sets
choices in those limits fast movement
movement 2)
more sets
use movement along axes
sets as above to determine position as well as size slow movement
movement 3)
use chance to break up set structure
non symmetry in first 2 movements
fast movement — scherzo
movement 4)
again symmetrical — structured — fast
movement 2)
combine chance and structure
