Below is the quick note i got during the meeting last week, i will come up a better one later this week....
Hong Kong specific
Relationship between ppl and cities n mainland
China element is not verbally obvious
How to continues in this situation
Is the city giving u any thing? Or u give more to the city
Give each other space
Intensity of HK, full of action
But it grows slowly , rolling slowly?
He doesn’t feel being pushed by the crowd
The space is always in between something, in relation so sth
Scale of things, of human being
Where the things are placed in the empty space
The set provides different shapes of space, like movable
Transparency of the steam room, clean the steam
The traffic light sound is interesting, and feel that the road is not design for the ppl
Polluted air n environment, esp in the tram
The ppl is part of the machinery running the system here.
There are several rooms scattered around
Ppl can wander around. The set can be moved, use the sound source to distract the audience
Frankie:
Choice for audience, now is we provide the choice——
> what does it mean ? Does it mean we don’t make a choice ?
Our relationship between space and ppl, the Internet e. G. It is huge
But real space is small
Space n dancers and space m audience
What to look at for the audience? To confused them ?
Different sense of space between ppl
Living space is everything to us, which is sad situation, the first step
What’s the meaning of space ?
Personal space
Psychological space
Physical space
Visual space
Virtual space
Political space
Space to us what does it mean ?
We may take it for granted of the space /dance/ music
Traffic light game ?
