Possibly a common question, sorry if asked and answered before, but Google failed me...
I'm considering some aleatoric notation (so-called "box notation") for a piece but couldn't find info in the manuals (the "contemporary notation" section of the 2.14.2 docs @ lilypond.org is empty), or in the LSR, or Google searches to find out how to realize it. By "box notation" I mean collections of gestures/phrases, enclosed in a box, with an arrow indicating to keep doing that until the arrow stops. The phrases could use normal rhythmic notation or proportional notation without stems/flags. Some time ago, somebody posted a link to Mike Solomon's "granini di luce beccucciati da uccelli di silenzio" as an example of contemporary notation. The attached pic from it illustrates more-or-less what I'm after (though I wouldn't need the slash). Thanks!
