1) Look at Nature Study Notes (1969) by Scratch Orchestra (ed.Cornelius Cardew) read out some of the instructions. Look at other examples. Talk about restraints as agents for making work (Dogma, Sol LeWitt &c).

2)

Write your own notations (instructions) Compile Scratch Directory (below).

In groups, invent, perform, make work from notations in the Scratch Directory (below). Over the day, we will use the directory as an 'engine' to produce images.

a) make work from your own scratches

b) make work from another group (so, we end up with different versions of the same piece = cover version).

12:00-13:00 write scratches, add them to the directory and make work from your own scratches.

Take no more than 10 mins to write and produce work from each scratch; move on to next scratch.

13:00- 13:10 meet to review progress and plan the afternoon

13:10 LUNCH

14:10 continue to write scratches, add to directory and make work from your own scratches; make work from other scratches (cover versions).
