| the music publishing (facs!zst) business has not been about publishing
perhaps since tin pan alley. it's all about royalty payments for
recordings. your work can be registered, at least in the u.s., with a
recording (form PA). search for register of copyrights on web.
but from your post it sounds as though you may wish to have your work
performed live and believe it to be possible. traditional notation works
fine for traditional pitched music. finale is probably the most
comprehensive (and complex) software package to deal with scores (not sure
of its graphic capabilities).
as for systems of graphic notation, there have been numerous attempts.
believe this subject has come up on the csound list and a number of
resources were recommended but a search of my own archives have not turned
up anything back to january. you might try searching the csound archives
prior to then. get back to me if you don't find anything and i'll look some
more. but from what i've seen, such systems will probably only provide some
ideas -composers often tend to create symbols and instructions of their own
to best suit their work so don't (ever) hesitate to roll your own rules.
