Mare Undarum is a graphic score 45-minutes in length

"Analogous to his use of audio editing software during live performances to modulate and distort sound, Sharp's technique in creating [this piece] was to use graphics editing software to process musical notion (that he himself composed) to distort, layer, invert, blur and ultimately explode traditionally written sheet music, in turn creating visual works of art." - from Christian Marclay's notes to a piece employing similar techniques

Performers: Rachel Golub-violin; Ron Lawrence and Jessica Pavone-violas; Adam Fisher-cello; Elliott Sharp-electroacoustic guitar
