I find composing
and arranging
and then re-composing
and re-arranging
very helpful tools
in order to think about
and feel into

This week I have been exploring how my practice of composing could be present in a conversation with somebody else. I am developing a tabletop game that includes arranging objects.
This game will facilitate a performative encounter. What do I mean by that?
With performative I mean that the conversation will not only focus on what we speak about, but also on how we speak. Having a conversation could entail many ways of speaking, from using words to bodily gestures and the composition of shapes.
