Milan Adamčiak saw limitations in traditional note schemes for his perception of music. Knowing of new trends in notation, he set about creating his own sheet music. He took inspiration from drawings by Wassily Kandinsky and George Braque, and from contour and shape drawings. The form he chose was the one-page graphic print, which he realized using drawings, graphs, collages, objects, assemblages, accumulations and the like. Many of the music scores he made led him to his first systematization and typology of sheet music in the mid-1970s, which he redefined and supplemented in 1993-1995. He conceived his last artistic typology in 2012, defining sheet music to be passed along and rotated during playing, and music capturing contours of landscapes, clouds, shadows on stony cliffs and state borders and islands. He also notes frame, block, zone, model or system sheet music. In his series “Music Sheets” and “Albumblätter” [Album Sheets] he made interpretations, homages and dedications to various kindred artists and music graphic composers. Of particular interest are scores for music/spatial projects, instrumental theatre, electro-acoustic compositions and music for recording tape, ground plans, walls, installations, objects and three dimensions, and in collage, drawing, sketches and post-script (i.e. post-realization) writings.
