working under the strategy 'space as process', "recursive dot movement" extends the concepts of alvin lucier's work "i am sitting in a room" and its utilization and exploitation of a room's natural resonant frequencies. what happens when a performer's movement gets de-articulated or translated, either digitally or physically by the space itself? minimal elements including costume design, choreography, video and sound integrate around the idea of site-specific recursion.
