Partituret i Recycling the Work Process: A Composition in Three Movements for Instruments by Choice är en beskrivning – ett sätt att förmedla en känsla och en upplevelse – av Ann Roséns över fyrtio år långa konstnärliga process. Utifrån verk, projekt och tidsperioder har Rosén skapat symboler som hon använder i kompositionen för att indikera olika typer av spelstilar, fria att tolka: Resonance, Accelerando full stop, Back and forth, Change direction, Noise, Mute och Resistance. Boken innehåller även essäer av kompositören Bennett Hogg (UK), konstnären Gunnel Pettersson (SE) och musikskribenten Julian Cowley (UK).

”Recycling the Work Process” contains a graphic score, texts and Rosén’s own pictures that help the reader to understand and interpret the graphic score. The score is a description — a way of conveying a feeling and an experience — of Ann’s forty-two-year artistic process. Based on works, projects and time periods, Ann Rosén has created symbols that she uses in the composition to indicate different types of playing styles, free to interpret: Resonance, Accelerando full stop, Back and forth, Change direction, Noise, Mute and Resistance. Essays by Bennett Hogg composer (UK), Gunnel Pettersson artist (SE) and Julian Cowley music journalist (UK).
