vs. Interpretation: An Anthology of Improvisation, vol. 1 is a compendium of essays edited by David Rothenberg. It is the first publication by the Agosto Foundation.

The book is published in two variations. An edition (limited to 100 copies includes a sound module and the USB compilation, while the remaining copies include only the USB compilation.
Inspiring to read, not only for scholars and artists but for anyone interested in improvisation, Anthology is a tool for living in and interpreting the world around us.
Sound module
The sound module has been designed especially for this limited-edition run of vs. Interpretation and is embedded in the front cover of the book. A subtle sound is activated and deactivated by movement and light. There are two kind of sounds produced:
- A simple sine wave with range of little bit more than one octave, starting approximately at C5 and ending on D6.
- A clicking sound running on frequencies 0.7 Hz - 70Hz.
