Henry Rollins

Imagine someone so infatuated by a band that they have every different pressing of every album the band made. Most of the time, the only difference in the album is the matrix number or a different 'made in' notation on the back cover or label. This is enough to make some people extremely excited. Actually, much more than excited.

American Musician

Rachel Cusk

The true self seeks release, not constraint. It doesn't want to be corseted in a sonnet or made to learn a system of musical notations. It wants liberation, which is why very often it fastens on the novel, for the novel seems spacious, undefined, free.

Canadian Novelist

Niklaus Wirth

My being a teacher had a decisive influence on making language and systems as simple as possible so that in my teaching, I could concentrate on the essential issues of programming rather than on details of language and notation.

Swiss Scientist

Harold Budd

Sometimes I write them down in musical notation as a trigger to remind me about certain directions to go. Or I can be specific about a sound I'm looking for.

American Composer

Morris Graves

I paint to rest from the phenomena of the external world-to pronounce and to make notations of its essences with which to verify the inner eye.

American Artist

Elias Canetti

The process of writing has something infinite about it. Even though it is interrupted each night, it is one single notation.

Swiss Author

Evan Parker

To speak about notation as the only way that you can guarantee structure of course is already very suspect.

British Musician

Flying Lotus

I wish I could write music notation. Even if I couldn't play it, I wish I could just write it.

Gary Moore

I found reading musical notation frightfully boring.

Irish Musician

Harrison Birtwistle

I wrote music as soon as I knew notation.

British Composer

Helps represent complex ideas simply through symbols, often seen in specialized fields.

Symbolic Language

Can vary between cultures or fields; don't assume universal understanding.

Cultural Variance

Signals additional information or an important detail within a text.

Detail Indicator

Use to explain or clarify things that may not be immediately obvious in your writing.

Clarity Aid

Often used for personal reference; may not be clear to others without context.

Personal Reference

Intended for brevity; keep it short and to the point.

Quick Note

In coding, consistent notation ensures understanding and readability across developers.

Consistency Key

Different programming languages have their own preferred notations.

 that's 180 pages in length, and it's just a big chunk of my life, and I'm just pulling out hair. I have a lot of it, and that's a good thing I suppose. So this gets really boring and really tiresome for me, so after a while the process of notating is not only boring, but I actually want the notation to be more interesting,

 and a software package called Hyperscore, which lets anybody use lines and color to make quite sophisticated music. Extremely easy to use, but once you use it, you can go quite deep -- music in any style. And then, by pressing a button, it turns into music notation so that live musicians can play your pieces.

 whether by using high and low drums, or long and short beats. Which ends up being heard as the main beat is not a precise rule, but like the famous Rubin's vase, can be reversed depending on cultural perception. In standard notation, rhythm is indicated on a musical bar line, but there are other ways.

 If a numeral appeared before one with a higher value, it would be subtracted rather than added. But even with this innovation, it was still a cumbersome method for writing large numbers. The way to a more useful and elegant system lay in something called positional notation.

 Can we go any higher? It looks like we've reached the limit of how many different finger parts we can count with any precision. So let's think of something different. One of our greatest mathematical inventions is the system of positional notation,

 And, in fact, that's exactly what most solvers do, even using a group theory notation indicating turns. And it's not just good for puzzle solving. Group theory is deeply embedded in music, as well.
