If we just imagine ideal world, where choreographer can accurately deliver his idea to audience. How big or small responsibility relies on audience to understand idea of performance? Is it active way to see or audience is feed by choreographer?
And as we know that this world can't be ideal, because we do not have instrument to make it perfect. Creation of other understanding of audience is witnessing. It means active form of being present.
Should we stick to title audience or try to change it to witnessing?
And how it can work out?
The last question is more addressed to artists and students of all kinds of art. We are learned to take art in active form trough all senses. Trough all learning process students are trying to reach one of the goals to stay active in seeing, to be witnesses.
However, how it is with others, for whom it is created ( of course, if it is created for some one :) ), are they ready to stay active and to take responsibility for that?
