Hi
David Miller addresses this in his article about the performance practice of the Variations series (American Music vol 27 no 1). There are two working drafts for a score, both in the EAT archives (the first one is also present in the NY public library for performing arts). I can copy across the relevant bit of text from Miller's article if that would be helpful! 
The Variations have occupied me a bit over the years so it is always nice to hear someone else looking at them!

Hello everyone,

Thinking about art at distance to respond to the current situation, I was thinking about Variations VII where different sound sources come from different points. It seems that the score is not available at Editions Peters (https://www.editionpeters.com/writer/john-cage/w00713#facets=&sort=1|1).

Is this score never published ? Is there a way to get it ?
