What I liked about this show is also what I found most challenging about it. Difficult to convey (represent) what was seen and heard, due to both temporal and spatial constraints of multidimensional works such as these (time-based media all) and the limitations of any kind of documentation as such, I often want to say, "you had to be there." I also know that even as I was there in one instance, it was only one iteration. I'm certain repeat visits to the show would have produced different results for some of the works, and I am remiss to have missed the scheduled performances. It occurs to me now that the more contained works may transfer well to a set of headphones and a bean bag just about any where, and that would be nice. In fact, were there seating as a concession to the works, I wouldn't have sat on the floor. But I didn't mind...
