Detail:
- Enter unknown terrain within an 'approach aware' state --- notate own body experience & body residence/residue/resistance/resting place
And then in any order, at a later or immediate stage:
- Identify and map senses of terrain: on paper / in the dirt / say it / move it / share it. I would suggest the naming of things can work greatly here. Not always.
- How can I expand and elongate that sense, that state? How can I sit in it? What properties of this element will make this sense more encompassing (choice of speed, proximity/distance, time taken embodying this, etc in relation to the specific terrain)? Or less encompassing? How do I unweave this state, this sense? What parts make up the sum of this experience?
- What props (costume, camera frame, angle, time of day etc) will bring that sense to the forefront, that will resonate with the relation between the sources of the terrains (both body & country)? This is all about extending the time and space of the sense to enable it to breathe and hold life & dynamic.
- Repeat the mapping process again - refine. Can the mapping (from whatever medium it has surfaced - movement, voice, photograph etc) be repeated in another terrain? Indoors? That is, how does it transfer to another space?
