Identifier: CC-58667-10001903
Scope and Contents

The short psalm reads: A song of Ascent / Behold, Bless God...I originally designed the letterforms I used in this work for a Ketubah. It was one in which I wanted to use the step motif...I suppose any spiritual journey is a kind of gradual, lifelong, step-like movement - ideally upward and forward but, alas, all too often with many downward and backward regressions." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

Ross asks Cobbing about his sound scores [abstract markings] and how he reads these marks. He cites Norman McLaren who drew a sound track on film. McLaren stated that "a thin line will give you a high sound, a thicker line will give you a lower sound. If you make a little tiny point it'll give you a high 'ping,' if you make it a rounder blob, a biggr blob, it'll give you a 'boom'..." Cobbing indicates than when he makes marks on paper, he writes in sound.
