Lehrer indicates that Versations is made up of sounds in a space that can have personal meaning to the reader, or can be used as a score or script for a performance of characters listed at the top of each page. "Time moves from top to bottom. The performance progresses one page at a time. Notations that occur on the same horizontal line are performed simultaneously. Line lengths are determined by breath breaks as in verse but the reading as in conversation is generally fluid. Most speeches have typographic indicators for particular emphasis, volume, or emotion. Some chacters on the othe hand ar more monochromatic. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
