Dear Dexter:

\J
	I have enclosed three copies of "Machines ...", two in large format 
 
and one small one.    The bassoonist would probably prefer the larger size. 
 
I did these rather rapidly so there may be some errors.    The times given
 
in the boxes are for the tape operator who must use a stop watch to give 
 
these cues to the bassoonist and the reader so that a general sort of    
 
coordination is maintained.    The poem is best read from the book.   (Grove
 
Press paperback.)  I don't recall the exact title of the collection but it
 
is one of Richard Brautigan's first few publications.    If you can't find a 
 
copy easily I can get one to you.    The crescendos, etc. in the computer part
 
must be done on the amplifier volume control.     The tape is started and stopped
 
according the given square brackets in the score.   ( [ ] ).
 
	I will bring along my best tapes of both pieces.    I will be prepared
  
for 7 1/2 ips or 15 ips and 4 track or 2 track.    (At least I think I have
 
tapes for all these situations.    I've found this to be a good precaution
 
because I have occasionally run into some impossible intonation problems.)
  
	I have also enclosed the pages of your clarinets pieces.    If you find
 
anything you would want to be different mark up the sheets and send them back
 
to me.    I have put in a couple of pictures (not too good - but what can be
 
done with the material?)   Also there is a copy of the program of the 1st 
   
performance of "Machines..."  and some biographical material.
 
	I have not heard anything yet from Worcester, Mass.    Perhaps they are
 
still snowed in.     I plan to write to Peter Clements soon.    If you have contacted
 
him, all the better.    I hope that we will be able to get the entire new MUS10
 
and SCORE systems going at Colgate.    There are lots of new things you will find
 
very useful.    I now have my new version of the human rhythm input program running
 
quite nicely.    I you can get someone to get your PDP10 to read real time taps 
 
from a TTY keyboard or a telegraph key on some special line we could put this
 
program up too.     It allows complete rhythmic freedom with any amount of exact
 
coordination between parts desired.
 
	Edith is now in Paris, after the opening of her exhibition in Brussels 
 
on the 7th.     We plan to meet in New York City on March 19.     I have a few   
 
things to do there but I should be free to move on before the 26th.     At this
 
point I think I could follow just about any kind of schedule you would like
 
up to the 5th of April when I must get back here.
 
	I trust all is going well with you and I look forward to the trip.
