and toured the United Kingdom in 2004, with additional performances at the Philadelphia Live Arts Festival and a guest performance and interview on the long-running show, New Sounds, on WNYC, New York. The company produced several experimental works including Saccades And Fixations and Cremenville, written for Opera North's Resonance programme in 2006. In 2007, Wyer wrote an opera-storytelling work Johnny's Midnight Goggles as a one-man show, later performed by Sharp. It premiered at the Brighton Festival in 2008, with performances at Chichester, Bath, Glastonbury, Edinburgh and other festivals. Sharp also performed the sequel, Finkelstein's Castle. Time structured mapping Time Structured Mapping is a scoring system that uses the convention of barlines to indicate durations and gives guidelines for improvisation, text, movement, alongside standard musical notation. It is in a way similar to graphic notation scores and the scores of Musique Concrète composers. It led to a variety of exploratory new works, including the one-hour Insomnia Poems based on the book of poetry by Steve Dalachinsky. It was recorded for BBC Radio 3's 'Jazz on 3' programme and subsequently nominated for their 'Best of 2009' broadcast. The work featured musicians Chris Cundy Robert Perry, Evelyne Beech, Mike Cross with Wyer performing on guitar, piano and sound manipulation performing from a 'time-structured map' with stopwatches on music stands, allowing coherent movement from section to section. Other works featuring Time Structured Mapping include the one-hour Listening to the Sky performed in the atrium of Birmingham Symphony Hall in 2010 by members of the Orchestra of the Swan along with components from local schools, according to directions given from the 'map'. The system was used by Welsh National Opera for the educational element of their 2010 tour. A 20-minute film, Beware Inanimate Objects (Bearing Grudges) was created by Gavin Porter, with a Wyer score for the first half of the film and a time-structured map for the second half, giving musical guidelines to groups of students in order for them to create the second half of the score in a one-day workshop.
