Of course, given that the legitimating source in

is a misnomer for "constructing" a link between electoral
rules and their source a posteriori. Volume One of the Levin CD contains, after the Sonata, Three
Tone-Pictures (1910-15), graceful landscape evocations with the kind of
titles Griffes would affix a posteriori, to make the music more salable. Gestures a posteriori designated as
comedy--John Baldessari singing Sol LeWitt phrases, for example, or
