Tigran Petrosian vs Boris Spassky, 12th match-game, 1969 World Championship || Annotations by Mikhail Tal from ‘64 magazine (No.21, 1969). Translated by Douglas Griffin

[noosphe-re]

Notation is not sketching, and its products are not "sketches". I avoid the word "sketch", detest the French equivalent, croquis. The words reek of Beaux-Arts aestheticizing ideology. "Sketch" suggests something that will be followed by a more elaborate version of the same, and then by schematic drawings, design development drawings and, likely, many forms of conventional representation. What I am doing here is thoughts on paper. The current state of technology still requires the hand. But I could imagine using emerging technologies or the movement of my eyes alone, providing thought could somehow materialize itself in front of the eyes.

Robert Moran created Sketch for a Tragic One-Act Opera specifically for John Cage’s Notations book project. Its nontraditional score includes a razor blade taped to the page.

[Whoo! Nice, spicy lobster and shrimp. Roarke made some notations on the fax—a. It's a Minnesota icicle right here. You know the whole farm-to-table thing?]
