Emanuel Dimas de Melo Pimenta (b. 1957)
Partly autograph computer-printed virtual notation signed of Through the Looking Glass, New York, 1993
Virtual score for this work inspired by Lewis Carroll.

Computer-printed graphics with hand-painted additions in gold, red and black, with two lines (quoting from Flaubert and Pessoa) in autograph, one page, 300 x 400mm, on thick artist's paper, composer's red stamp and paraph on recto and verso, inscribed in pencil at lower margin with title and date.

(1) Presented by the composer to Martin Schøyen, August 2014 (presentation inscription signed in pencil and with inked finger-print on verso).

(2) Schøyen Collection, MS 5525.

Pimenta explained his process of preparing a virtual score as follows: 'Firstly, I "enter" inside a virtual environment and draw with my hand movements. Then, a plotter, which is a robot, draws on paper. After that, there is another human intervention: I paint in the three pre-historic colours gold, red and black at some points ... Then two lines are written with graphite pencil in my calligraphy, random excerpts from the seven most important books in my life: Shakespeare, Joyce, Pessoa, Camoes, Flaubert, Dante, and Borges. Each time a sentence is used in a score, it is erased from the book. In the end, these books will be empty' (email to M. Schøyen, 2014).

Published in: Virtual Notations 1980-2010. The music of Emanuel Dimas de Melo Pimenta, Charleston, 2014, pp 188-195.
