To create a version of the sculpture, all 8 notated parts need to be recorded.

Each guitar has a unique scordatura and pedal setup.

Each part contains 52 measures that are to be played at the indicated tempo (including rests appearing within these parts).

For a version with a live performance component, additional layers may be performed simultaneously with the playback of the recorded parts.
In a live performance, the recorded layers should be played from unique locations as is possible.
