Hi Alan and all,
Eve Andree Laramee here.
I just jumped on the list again and will have to read thru the archives to
understand the context.

But I too have a different conception of the BWO. A group of people dancing
(GPD) seems like the antithesis of the BWO. A GPD is a machinic assembly
with movements operating as ligaments between bodies: connective, creating
couplets and constellations of continuous and counter-continuous flows.
