If you allow the notion of picture to be so fluid, doesn't it leave one
uncertain whether anything at all clear is being said?
Isn't a musical score much more like an algorithm than a picture? A CD
is much more like a picture of the sound of a symphony than a score is.
To serve in the general argument, isn't a picture required to have some
sort of isomorphism to a state of affairs - something that is much more
readily attributable to a CD than a score.
