8. “What we might call ‘space-specific’
performances engage with formal
parameters; while what we might call
‘place-specific’ performances engage with
cultural and social meanings.”

9. “Space lays down the law because it
implies a certain order [...] Space
commands bodies, prescribing or
proscribing gestures, routes and distances
to be covered.”
(Henry Lefebvre, The Production of Space)

(French, “step/dance together”) is the
term for codified par tner work. In site-

36. The discipline of phenomenology may be defined
initially as the study of structures of experience, or
consciousness. Literally, phenomenology is the
study of “phenomena”: appearances of things, or
things as they appear in our experience, or the
ways we experience things, thus the meanings
things have in our experience.
