Active Slide Scores

A couple (new to me) works using Active Slides. In these types of scores, there isn't movement within the score, but a series of Slides, each indicating notational information, that are cycled through over some predetermined timeframe.

Not Missing You by Amanda Stuart, described as "a text sound piece created with one voice with graphic score for performance. Created with my poem - Not Missing You. Can be performed as an acousmatic piece, or for live voice/s and fixed media." (from YouTube)

ZeroTime Operations (vinyl collage & graphic score) by Erik Spangler, described as "a graphic score and audio collage based on samples from vinyl records, serving as a foundation for improvisation between ensembles in two different countries and time zones, connected through Skype." (from YouTube)
