Re: how to simulate or vectorize free hand curve notation

[Ryan Michael]

I see in the Lilypond Reference That you can specifiy for example, the shape of a Phrasing Slur by giving control points. E.g.

\shape #'((0 . -1) (5.5 . -0.5) (-5.5 . -10.5) (0 . -5.5)) PhrasingSlur

However, is there a way to do this outside of a slur context? Namely I would like to draw curves like the above slur but without 

actually engraving noteheads, just the curve itself.

Dear Ryan,

Oh my goodness. Almost as hair raising as the contemporary scores I have to set. Which curves exactly do you mean? Could you circle them on the image or otherwise indicate what you need? There exist a variety of different methods for curves of various sorts.

I have some glissandi curves that I would like to input into my lilypond score.

Is it possible to load some vectorized equivalent across x Bars? Or to simulate my original hand drawn curves somehow? 

Here is the example of the notation style I would like to make:
