POTENTIAL FOR PERFORMANCE TO FALL SOMEWHERE ELSE, SHOULD WE HAVE BOUNDARIES FOR PERFORMANCE - dancing on butter sqaure as it melts

performance existing in our heads- through text and story and rumour - is it greater than what we end up seeing. for example my running away performance does it exist better through text or in video? or actual performance, but the actual performance can only exist once.  the video of the woman dancing in butter .... was it greater before i saw it... the idea i had in my head of  GIANT SQUARE of butter with woman on top, reality was smaller less dramatic but more successful in other ways.
theatrical quality - animals and imagery before performance
SIILENCE -  what you dont say or what you dont do.

background noise - john cage
incubator - eye - performance
brian cackly - chisenhale or mats gallery - scribe making notes unfolding - john tilby focus- tied to others to perform - alive to that moment!

ENFIELD POLTERGEIST - convinced there was a spirit - became huge thing = performing to ourselves change.
desire to believe - I WANT TO BELIEVE - HOW CAN I DO IT.

CHANGE - why should we change, when do we change, do others change not us? we always change, is there any set point we become ourselves - when do i become lucia so to speak - or the lucia that everyone assigns to me - people say oh youve changed... of course ive changed, why are you still the same. what about when its change not for good? bad change? can u change back completely?

obsessions
perform the peformance - tricante cremaster cycle.
fake dustology business.
