Hanne Darboven transformed numerical systems into musical compositions based on mathematical scores. Her "cross-sum calculations of the century" served as the structural foundation for notations that she interpreted on the organ or violin. This meticulously calculated, non-traditional "mathematical music" unfolds an unexpected aesthetic quality. The two-sheet edition presented here visualizes the chord of these compositions.
Early copies of Hanne Darboven's edition included audio cassettes, which were transferred to CD in 2017 due to technological advancements.
