This is only for students in Sean's workshop. These instructions duplicate what you heard in class.
First, take a sheet of graph paper and create a set of four interlocking patterns, filling in the boxes to indicate where the beats take place. Have the pattern last for at least two measures of four beats each. Next, transfer those beats to four single lines, using Western notation for the beats and rests. You are not focusing on pitches right now; just using notation for beats and rests. Don't forget to put your name on it!
The assignment is due on Monday, October 20.
