how:For my final exam in 1996, I asked myself whether I could notate music in different ways. I took a song by my band, The Howtoplays, and came up with 10 ways to score it, with each method emphasising a different aspect of the music. One of the notations simply involved drawing the chord fingerings on the guitar and giving each a different colour. That also became the image I used for the announcement card.
