I declare that, expect that where I have clearly indicated otherwise in the work itself, all the work I am submitting for the March degree is my own and has been done for no other examination or purpose.
A 2 Z
Liaisons wafted up… I sometimes think about somebody who I cannot see again.
Liaisons,,, this word is often found in human relations by the way.
About a person who I cannot see because of losing love, broken friendships,
Maybe especially in love between man and woman. Liaisons,,, it relates with the things to eat.
I recall them not by trying to remember,
Probably it is the feeling that we don’t have when we’ve got involved in.
But only a little thing make past and present be connected.
The feelings that we have when somebody has disappeared
The time spend with them had already stopped long ago.
or that we have when that fact has become nothing more than a shock.
However I get confused when I notice that memories left alive altering its form secretly in my body.
It is similar to the taste,
When the feelings which I have never had in front of that person surged up,
while accepting satisfaction for becoming adult and resignation that a part of myself has aged.
that is, let’s say,
Liaison is also a key word of taste, bitter but sweet,,, But it always needs a time lag for corking a bottle,
The reason why I started to deal with this project is
And the time lag brewed a taste. Hold on second...
I try to insert in many place.

It might not be necessary to open it. A word for the key always gives us a soft spot of surprise. Well,,, when the keyhole of our heart is opened, we unconsciously forget our action for a second.
then stories began...
There is a language which can describe all the relationships with only 26 words. While I have relation with somebody, I am in utter amazement sometimes. How should I call what I feel this moment, the place where I stand there, things which wrapped me, and the only one point which intertwined them. It is similar to the moment in the past. But it is clearly different, Maybe I will feel the same thing in near future. I know this feeling‌ But I will be different from that time. For what? For making sure about it. The feeling which now I have. That is just the things which can describe only with 26 words. only 26 word. ,,,,I just want to breathe a sigh like that. A to Z.

1. Waiting What is ‘waiting’? Waiting is an investigation into our temporal relationship with our cities. Most of urban dwellers wait many times each day. This time-gap tends to be ignored quickly by another density of time. However when we are trapped in this enforced situation, our mentality is totaly a slave of around the city. In this section, to pick up fragment of experimental scene for the theatrical piece, I tried to be an audience of the city phenomenon, assuming that direct conversation for the city may reveal the extent waiting affect how we percieve. I was waiting the person who started to wait,,, actually.

*observation -physical movement in waiting To investigate physical movement in waiting, I used direct observation for my research. I watched people waiting, and how they interacted with their environment. However for picking up pure condition of waiting [Figure3,4] shows the movement in-between beginning of waiting and the time when expected event has come. As these images illustrate, people move around in their space to seek out temporal information. Compared to the situation which we can speculate our turn of expected event as a physical states like of the bus, it can be said that our movement is governed by visual information such as a display board and feelings from the atmosphere.
while waiting : we move around to seek out information we are slaves of visual information 16

*conversation-theatricality of waiting From these observations, I surveyed in some spot with a questionnaire to extract more specific description of waiting. Example of questionnaire below aims to obtain the idea of the element to reconstruct the theatrical scenario coexisting a regular time in the city. Questionnaire has conducted at random asking people to make general judgements of their experiences of waiting and definition of waiting, and has done several area (Heathrow airport, Saint assistant such as new agent) where represents different character of waiting such as appointment in tourist point, temporal wait in transportation, long term wait (daily routine) of the shop assistant, relax or

contents of questionnaire 1. What (or who) are you waiting for now most? 2. Where were you waiting? 4. How do you feel while waiting? 5. How many times do you usually wait per day? 6. How long does your waiting time last on average? 7. How long can you stand for waiting? How long are you prepared to wait? 8. When do you feel that time seems to drag, while you’re waiting? 9. Do you feel that time-passing seems to be slower than before, if an expected event(e.g. a train) comes later than the timetable? 10.What kind of situation do you enjoy waiting? 11.Which kind of situation do you feel bored the most? 12.Where did you wait, the last time you arranged to meet your friend? 13.When you make an appointment, do you direct yourself(e.g. position and so on)? 14.What kind of place do you like for waiting? 15.What do you choose to do while waiting? 16.Do you believe the information on the boards, when you are waiting for a transportation? 17.Are you interested in the things or movement (e.g. the other’s behavior, advertisement)? 18.Do you think your sense (e.g. for sound, for visual stimulus) becomes sharper while waiting? 19.Can you color on this picture? 20.personal comment 22

1-1. word of waiting
‘ Boredom’, ‘Time doing nothing constructive’, ‘Waste of time’, ‘passing time between different condition’, the time between cause and effect’,‘time between two event’, ‘the time in-between the present and something I want to happen’, ‘the period of uncertainty’, ‘period of time before an expected event’, ‘the time until situation that makes us wait will happen ‘, ‘the time in-between the present and something you want to happen’, ‘time of chance’, ‘being possessed by an event’,‘Time in which we cannot do nothing more until something’, ‘not physically being able to get where I want’,
their subjective view, this could be a key issue of further discussion. From the view of adjective in phrase, waiting is discribed as negative experience such as boredom and frustrations. Then looking at preposition in phrase, which means exsistance, waiting is situating short-lived term in-between purposes which implies unexpected and unescapable period behind the regular time. Thirdly, in terms of verb, which suggests action, waiting time let person stay longer.
[waiting]: I am enforced in the intervals with frustration ??? 24
1.Waiting25
1-2. uncertainty in waiting Waiting is unintended interruption. According to the questionnaire almost 70% of people described feeling of waiting as frustrating and anxious. Where does this negative expression come from? Here is a expectation and uncertainty. Although majority of response from people think that waiting time will continue around 5~8minutes on average, some think 1 hours, weeks, years, and so on. This question has a variety of answers even though in the same place. Also in transportation situation, the question of whether people can believe the information on the display board or not is divided into almost equal halves. This shows that how much people have a clue to recognize the time when expected event comes is quite doubtful. Therefore notion of time-passing or length of time can be depend on their expectation. In addition, according to the analysis of the place of transportation, comparing the premise of airport with bus stop, underground station and train station, unevenness of the result for the notion of time-passing can be seen remarkably in the airport. This might be revealed the identity of the place. For example, we are not so familiar with the situation in the airport, so that we rarely speculate what will happen or what should we do. However majority of answer in the airport says ‘bored’. That is because once we are in the airport, we cannot easily change our purpose, which means situation itself has heavy pressure and importance. For this reason, expectation might be connected to how proper the situation around people for the next and how much, that is the identity of the place.
identity of the place gives different notion of time-passing 26
1.Waiting27
1-3. speed in waiting How do we perceive time passing? As I mentioned in previous section, it can be said that our notion of time-passing is quite problematic and depends on the context. However there can be found a common answer in the question about the situation when we feel time drags. Most of them feels that time seems to continue longer in bored situation or in quite busy situation. In this sense, unpleasantness might make our notion of time longer. Furthermore, over 90% of responses show that we feel that time-passing seems to be slower than before, if an expected event comes later than timetable. Of course, it is depend on individual mood, however there could be a close connection between unpleasantness, slow speed of time and interruption of unexpected event. Also this implies that the starting point of our attention for timepassing could be only the time when timed events drop out. Then considering a possibility to design a space in terms of speed, such as ‘slow’ or ‘fast’, we can categorize waiting situation based on the idea of pleasantness and unpleasantness. According to Jonathan Bell [3], there are four forms of waiting, that is, frustrating wait, anxious wait, excited wait, resigned wait.

1.Waiting29
Frustrating wait ; such as waiting for delayed transportation, or jammed queue, could be described as the most pernicious experience which characterized by endemic modern life caused by a blip in the system. Anxious wait ; such as waiting for loved one or waiting for test result, might give us not only rising panic and wild supposition but also rich creativity. Excited wait ; such as the minutes before show starts, or the announcement of the winner, could serve us a mild interest to frenzied anticipation and suspense. Resigned wait
as the best kind of wait caused by the
chunk of time that has to be set aside. Longer resigned wait
there’s no rush of aggravated mental processes and
nothing we can do except surrender.
Speed of waiting can be divided into four forms, which is depend on our pleasantness of the context where the event interrupt and is depend on how proper the situation is or quantity of information of speculative future event. 30
1.Waiting31
1-4. place in waiting
these speed is mostly caused by unpleasantness, relevance and familiarity of the context. It is The fact that speed of waiting suggests identity of the space could be equal to the idea that site potentially has a taste for waiting as well as density in terms of time-notion in opposite way. According to the questionnaire, the place where people are fond of is divided into two kind of space, which suggests relaxation and stimulation. For example, what people describe for relaxation : quiet (comfortable in sounds), dry and hot (comfortable in air condition), sofa (comfortable in tactility). And most of people describe for stimulation : something keep them occupied such as book shop what people choose to do while waiting, such as reading books, playing with mobile phone, and looking at passing people, people tend to make their eye occupied with something.
waiting in transportation, waiting in service
appointment, waiting in
daily-living (for example waiting for the washing machine) and the others. Checking against the four forms of emotional status and question of enjoyable situation and bored situation, four situation above suggest a dynamics of the space. Each status of place needs some extent of relaxation and stimulation.
32
1.Waiting33
Waiting status represents a character of space. However, is what space actually exist same as what people perceive? The question about color in waiting [Figure5] shows how subjective people sees their surrounding is, and how fragmentary their memory is. As I mentioned above, people want to be occupied their time by something, visually and so on. What they remember could be depends on what occupied their needs. In this sense, visual perception for the place might be quite problematic. Or something can manipulate our visual sense.
Is it possible to use this changeable image of waiting as a theatre?
People need relax and stimuli for waiting place. What is able to manipulate waiting scene? 34
1.Waiting35
1-5. object in waiting
the place where the bus always delays, city has already had a potential capacity to let people wait in. If this potentiality could be called static waiting condition, what makes this condition kinetically transportation situation with service or appointment situation, it could be said that transportation situation is more kinetic condition than the others because of its complexity which is consist of various object. Object might be similarly described as a stage settings which changes condition of the scene. In terms of intervention, what kind of object is able to move our time-passing? In the result of question whether our sense becomes sharper while waiting, answers were divided into halves. However, more than 80% of people said that they are interested in things around them, and especially visual stimuli and movement such as advertisement, beautiful woman, and so on. Comparing to the general experimental result in timepsychology since the nineteen century, such as Auditory stimuli appear to last longer than visual one. / Moving stimuli will cause to longer duration for judgement than static ones [4], temporal sounds or visual stimuli
might be a element of the temporal waiting trap. Intervened object might work for changing human notion of time on purpose.

2.Distorted theatre As I mentioned in section1, there are two key elements that govern how frustrating or pleasant a waiting situation. They might be expectation and uncertainty. It can be said that it is a very part of what consists theatricality. When theatre is described as a place to manipulate these temporal experiences, researching about modern theatre to avoid a notion of safe availability for unspecified number of the general public and substantial controlling function might be a reference for close relationship of waiting in city context. In this section, to begin with I looked back a historical background of modern theatre to pick up the paradoxical element and considered how movement intervened between the place and the city dwellers when theatrical elements are found in the city condition.

2.Distorted Theatre39
2-1. Background of modern theatre The general type of theatre which is called proscenium arch type was born in the baroque age, representing by Theatre Falneze [Figure6] which developed the idea of perspective for the illusional effect in Theatre Olympico [Figure7]. This was for the reason of restricting audience’s eyes which causes homogenized seat space and putting stage technologies in the back which causes progress of the technique of changing scenery.
Figure7 : Theatre Olympico
Figure6 : Theatre Falneze

2.Distorted Theatre41
After that, this type was completed as a form of Batroit Theatre [Figure8] by Wagner in 19C for idealizing the stage performing by enlarged boundary between stage and seat space and sinking orchestra pit which is from the idea that orchestra is supporting tool for the arts. In the musical of Wagner, every performing element which consists it was relied on only one commander and which can characterized ‘Pyramid’ structure. It can be said most of current performing arts has more or less such character. On this strong tendency of performing arts, audience only allowed to be involved in the arts through the act of ‘contemplating’ the world which is showed in advance. That is to say performing function and watching function have started to separate. This idea of what performance arts should be carried on is considered as a necessary step in modern time, on the other hand audience was deprived of their individuality and homogenized as passive existence in stead. Performing side have treated audience as a nameless ‘mass’ and the most important thing to decide theatrical form was the condition that audience can see stage ‘equally’ from every seat, and can hear voice ‘equally’. Modern proscenium stage theatre was realized by these idea and context.
Figure8 : Batroit Theatre 42
2.Distorted Theatre43
Modern theatre has directivity for the homogenized space which premised with separation of performer and audience, but there was another separative phenomenon in the spectator’s seats. In these theatre, audience was allowed to participate in its performing only by the action of watching which has already served from the others. As a result, each audience was linked to the piece of work individually, and the theatre had lost unity of mutual audience. That is, audience just happened to be present for the same play, and the active communication of mutual audience have cut off. “The Hidden Dimension� [5] by Edward Hall indicates that audience has changed its form from assembled social group to separative social group. This was the second separative phenomenon. This phenomenon remarkably has proceeded of a nuisance who interrupt concentration for the screen than a companion who watches the same thing, has occurred even. To conclude, modern theatre hang a pradoxical problem between idealization for the play as a setting and the human relationship in the theatre.

2-2. Dismantling of modern theatre & Polymerized theatrical-space I can take any empty space and call it a bare stage. A man walks across this empty space whilst someone else is watching him, and this is all that needed for an act of theatre to be engaged. (Peter Brook “The Empty Space� [6]) This represent the very idea of the theatrical space at the time when new way of directing and technique of making drama was developed for the criticism of modern theatre. It is obvious from this statement that naked space which removed various decoration is the place where is most suitable for the genuine performing. Around this times, there happened to arise small experimental theatre and underground theatre at various places. These spaces such as a basement and deserted house were not built as a theatre originally, and those low ceiling and deformed shape has an inconvenience for the performance. Therefore performing had to take a different method from the one at the modern theatre which was prepared for stage equipment surrounded by proscenium arch. And these movement leaded new performing method and technique for making drama was developed gradually. These small theatre movement had reached a peak in the latter half of 1960, and showed an violent attitude which denied a system or organization of the modern theatre. Happenings and street theatre which are separated

transferred theatre which used temporary material such as a tent, is one of them. Activity of Black Tent by Shin Sato [Figure9] and Red Tent by Jyuro Kara in Japan is under a category. Also renovation Ariane Mnouchkine of Theatre du Soleil was strengthen. Every space in the theatre, such as spectator’s seat, backstage, lobby has converted adjusting a contents of the play. In the direction of Peter Stein in Germany, he also denied the facing relationship between stage and spectator’s seat of modern theatre, and created a form which aimed to wrap both actors and audience in one theatrical environment. As we can see in the plan and the section of “Peer Gynt” in 1971 [Figure10], there is a hill as a stage laid on the whole theatre, and seats are naturally inserted in it. This settings let audience feel as if they are in the performing space.
Figure9 : Black Tent
50
2.Distorted Theatre51
There can be found a big difference from usual way of stage setting in Mnouchkine and Peter Stein. That is as an environmental device set up for whole scene of the play. In Peer Gynt, the hill plays a role for it, and conversion of the scene has done on the basic device, for example moving the place of performance, changing small tools. Background of these stage setting can be read from a changing of the technique
of making drama and direction. In modern plays which represented by realism plays, it is demanded that disused element such as device and tool for one scene has to be disappeared from spectator’s view for the reason of pursuing a pure structure of the scenario. Also it is considered that the idea of converting the scene on the stage should be perfect and each scene is needed to replace as it is. In this sense, modern proscenium arch type which equipped setting technology such as wagon stage and revolving stage provided a convenient space.

However these ideal method of modern theatre has a serious problem which hung a internal contradiction when the piece of work heighten its pure condition of completion. As we could see in the movement of dismantling modern theatre, such as denying logical plot, defamiliarization , all these attempt was a refreshment from common sense of the stage, a setting for the situation which heterogeneous element can mix each other, a measuring tool for reconsidering a distance each other. Also in parallel with these movement, new way of making drama and technique of direction by polymerization of heterogeneous element was created along the development of the cinematic technique, such as montage and collage. These theatrical attempt might be summerized as an attempt of agreement between subjective view and objective view. For example, FLXUS, a group of artists influenced by Situationnist, done guerrilla into the ‘city’ by a method of art aiming directive interaction between ‘individuals' and 'city'. Seeing another example of pavilion work is not able to buried between inside and outside. With this industrial material, he tried to enlighten the fact of division between 'see' and 'be

seen'. For this reason, however its scale is, the object which intervene in the city causing our bodily sense embosses new reality against our daily 54
sense. 2.Distorted Theatre55
Figure12 : Dan Graham, Public Space / Two Audience, 1976
Reconstructing a theatrical experience in the city into one piece of work, what it could be like? Probably it is not necessary for the stage to convert whole space from one scene to the next while taking these attitudes which accept heterogeneous element. These attitude regard whole theatre as one universe which various accident can be happened, and take synthetic and bodily experience as a main matter. It could be referred from the baroque theatrical space which both actors and audiences participated in the space while playing some role each other. It could be refered from the intervention by modern artist.
After box-like theatre was scattered in the city. Some found many objects which could be a material for the theatre. Theatre of waiting is coexisting heterogeneous condition. Will these fragment be collected??? 56

3.Time-scape as a script We wait several times per day both consciously or unconsciously. However, we couldn’t imagine, where we will wait and when we will wait. Even though we describe our route to destination before departure, it might be a blind alley, roundabout way, or returning. We have a A to Z map in our hand. Yet we sometimes think there is nothing unusable than this map. Unexpected event can make our route different, or we can make a new map by our trick. If person-A delayed event for person-B, person-B might delay event for event for person-C. Because of delay of person-B, person-C might delay event for person-D. (continues..) One accident possibly draws invisible network in the city.

3-1. language of the script In parallel with the movement of dismantling modern theatre from the aspect of form which I mentioned in second section, critical movement has occurred against the contradiction which modern theatre had. As one of the example of this movement, there is a dissolution of the drama. The idea which values artistic character of the piece of work in the modern theatre deeply connected to the idea which gives superiority to the literary element of the play. That is, the way which develops the play centered on language, and the way which demand the basis of expression in the plot written in letters. The movement for the restoration of non-linguistic performing expression has occurred against this idea. There had a early example in the expressionism play by Max Reinhardt, and after that Piscator and Meyerhold have shown similar idea. Antonin Artaud is the person who suggested the idea in the most radical way. He published a The Theatre and Its Double [7] in 1938, and stated ‘Theatre of Cruelty’. That invaded deeply into the mentality of the audience like the plague and tried to approach deeply into contradiction of human lives. He wanted to separate plays from the concept that texts should be for stage, and tried to create am expression with every non-linguistic performing language as a method. With these various expressions, he added sharp criticism to the safe passive audience’s attitude. These extremely offensive plays intended to break the inviolable safe rules which is exchanged between audiences and actors and are strongly conscious of dismantling modern theatre in this sense. Regretfully the thought of Antonin Artaud continued to be 7. Antonin Artaud, translated by Victor Corti, The Theatre and Its Double, Calder & Boyars Limited, London, 1970 60

ignored during his lifetime, however it played a big role based on the movement which stimulated by the student movement in the latter half of 60s. As a example of Shuji Terayama in Japan shows strong use centripetal character of the space which occurred by enclosing active circle. Dissolution of the drama take up the matter of formation of the plot of the story itself. Modern drama And it is regarded as the things which is proceeded by meaningful conversations between the characters. In the blockade situations of the modern society, straight plot line itself was a critical object. Absurd plays centered in France proceeded this idea in positive way. It is represented by the Waiting for Godot [8], a masterpiece of Samuel Beckett. In this play, while waiting for the man named Godot, incoherent conversations are exchanging by the characters, however Godot had never turned up forever at last. ‘No conversation’ and ‘nothing happens’ through whole plot. As ‘silence’ or ‘pause’ is written in the senario, vanity of waiting is main theme of this play. Also negative words such as nothing, not, I’don’t know is used repeatedly.He wanted audience to experience agony of waiting with the characters together. This play is the event for experience. Everybody is waiting, however nothing happens. When Beckett compose this play in French, the title was ‘en attendant Godot’, which means literally ‘while waiting’. 8. Maxnotes; Samuel Beckett’s Waiting for Godot, Reseach & Education Association, 1996 62
3.Time-Scape as a script 63
“Defamiliarization effect� suggested by Bertolt Brecht also played a role for the dissolution of the drama. He aimed to recognize anew the unusualness of the ordinal society through the plays, and intended to let the audience have a consciousness which they watch the plays not by the passive way. of the play. It can be said a challenge for the passive audience in the modern theatre from the different aspect of what Antonin Artaud did.
Is the unordinary script causes unexpected event??

city. However could we possibly call this uneven perception of time in the city as a script of the play? As Beckett aimed to make silence of waiting in his piece of work positive interaction between ‘see’ and ‘seen’, waiting phenomena which occurred in the city could be a clue to create a script which causes unexpected action or multiple choice of city dwellers. For example, here is a daily schedule which one person (can be a actor) has set up, however accidental waiting time which operated by natural character of city causes additional unexpected event of him or her. In this sense, waiting situation of the city plays a similar role on what Beckett intended to activate theatrical pieces. I can summarize this idea with the word by Norihiko Fukui[9], City could be city only through the human activity which performed various role in the space as a stage. City make these activity start up and make them mixed each other and put together. These movement which hang unpredictability from various condition can be said as liveliness and dynamism of the city.

3-3. composition of the script How to visualize experience of these dynamism of the city? Probablly to have a stance of how to . In Image of the city [10]as Kevin Lynch analyzed the image of the city which people have in common based on five elements such as landmark, path, district, edge, and node, he had already stepped into psychological aspect. However this field work was mainly based on hardware of the city such as buildings, monument, road and so on, the image of the city which individuals have has become more fragmentary and overcrowding in current city which has a complex networks both reality and virtuality like information technology and transportation. Waiting time in the city reveals what city hang in terms of society, culture, software and so on. Also mentality relates with each situation. Then here there are some example of conversion into the map as a description of experience in the city from artist and architects.

As a first example of psychological conversion of the city, Guy Debord, a leader of Situationnist movement centered in Paris in 1950, suggested psycho-geography which seeks psychological geography. This attempted to describe not only the space which is made by architecture, but also the psychological situation which is made by city dwellers. He aimed to visualize unconsciousness behind the ordinary action by a method of drifting such as wandering underground passage or hitchhiking in Paris. On his psychographical map [Figure13], he overlapped his bodily sense through drifting on the aerial view and expressed direction and each relationship by adding a vector.

Secondly there is some example of conversion into three dimensional object from direct data through one’s own interpretation from the approach of phenomenology. Direct data has cut from various context of the city and includes many meanings. And it is important to extract a part of its meaning which needs to express and cut most of part. As a example of ‘touchstone’ by Peter Salter [Figure14], his project was developed from the experience in the natural environment through the tactic communication with a material.
Figure14 : Maureen Blossfeld, Intution&Process Themes. / Peter Salter, Kamiichi Pavilion,
Thirdly there is a lively way of conversion which expresses situation of the city using pictures and notation drawing [Figure15] which expresses the situation which investigates truth at scene of the crime in the city while taking a detective’s stance. In this drawing, time is taken along X-axis, and
it correctly
describes the situation which crime has been examined from the time crime has occurred. We can see
a time line has a journalistic view and is opposite stance of the architect who analyze cities in the world statistically such as Rem Koolhaus and MVRDV. 72

4.Parallax in Multiple time Waiting in a queue, or timetable, these visible situation represent that time-element might strongly related to line like form. In the situation that emphasize time-passing perception, how people perceived space around them? In this section, I am going to start from analyzing the space which we can feel time-passing sensitively such as passage by the idea of eye axis, then argue about the possibility of how modern theatre was established on the idea of perspective effect, how to take fragments of view apart from time-notion which has strong character whose experience is similar to the long-perspective space, and how to reconstruct these plural fragment into one plane,, are main theme of this section.

He used an I want to make people participate a little more, to let them change gear themselves; not to do their work for them. a 70mm wide-screen format with long-taking-shot and less narratives which intended to let spectator’ s eyes track across the whole screen very much as in real life.

The hall and its accompanying rooms are kept dark and exclusive for the good condition of privacy, protection and concentration. No daylight and it is strictly separated from outside in this low and labyrinth like space, therefore people lost the sense of place or time. They gradually start to loose the idea of where they are and what time since they entered in. Also there are no end of time because of same length of day and night. Also partition of the space is also unclear because

Yet in general building in Las Vegas treats surface in opposite way. The edge of the wall is dark so that boundary is not clear although space is closed. It can be said that the way of lighting is extremely anti-architectural. However in Las Vegas, it plays many roles such as a sense of unity for making unexpected happenings among the unfamiliar visitors, creating a timeless space for consuming, and keeping people admiring for the ‘Las Vegas’ image.

Projection of intense lights is causing viewer’s psychological and perceptual attitude.

Against the effect which reveals inner quality by the media of photography in modernism, we can accept from this phrase the fact that there are invisible quality in architectural space itself. This suggested that ‘real sensation’ given not only by visual sense but whole body notion should not be interpreted by photography. In his ‘Raumplan’ [Figure38], experimental participation is premised and eye line is inserted to inner part by curtain and frosted glass in the interior which is sheltered from outside visually.

By contrast, fetal movements-kicks, turns, even hiccups are now pronounced enough to be felt by the expectant mother, who may be able to identify an elbow, or a head, nudging against her abdominal wall. In this sense, it can be said that the architecture is created by human movement, and it is consist of path tracing forms in space. To tracing a human movement , such as hand movement, it could be a production way of window which heterogeneous view, connection of hybrid spaces, comes through. In the beginning of twentieth century, Rudolf von Laban, one of the pioneer of modern dance, had established a dance notation, ‘Labanotation’, to record movement requires drawing a plan like that of an architect. He analyze space which is created by human regular movement as 20 surfaces, which called kinesphere, the spherical space around the body delineated by extended limbs. According to Laban [16], the

Relationship to the body of kinesphere can be similar to the condition of the womb surrounding the baby. However, how could we find a responsible relationship, such as mother’s body and baby in the womb, in choreographic movement? This responsible relationship between human body and its surroundings would be developed by a choreography of William Forsythe. Figure39 : Rudolf von Laban, Choreutics
With Waiting for Godot, Samuel Beckett warned us that, spectators are all too secure in our expectations of dramatic event. Beckett managed us to stage what would not happen and to keep us waiting for it. As William Forsythe, a choreographer, stages what we don’t think happens, but does by deceptive unity of movement. Difference between his achievement and Laban’s system can be found in the idea of taking an axis in human movement. As Laban described in Choreutics, “a multilateral description of movement which views it from many angles is the only one which comes close to the ”, he suggested the stability of a single central point in the body from which all movement emanates and through which all axes pass. By contrast, Forsythe suggested the body or in space can become the kinespheric center of a paticular movement while accepting Laban’ of origin which can appear simultaneously in multiple points in the body. This multiple point of the body 126

As Decontructivist architect Daniel Libeskind describe [17], the rational ,orderly grid actually turns out to be made up of a series of decentered spaces,,,, linearity is lost when the architectural model is exploded. There are close connection between Libsekind and Forsythe on their idea. When we Libeskind mention non-lineality and fragment of exploded architectural model, these fragments are compared to body part or body axis for Forsythe. Therefore both body part and fragment of architectural model is treated as a language. This can be seen in Forsythe's practice as 'universal writing' which is “a continual reassignment of effort and shape; a loss of strict categorization in which desired randomness, with residual aesthetic logic, allows any form-like the

He purposely keeps everyone, dancers, audience, himself, always geard to expect the unexpected.
Above all, to create a window to let in a lively space including vibration and fragile state which possible fall into the unexpected, analysis of human movement such as choreography could potentially be a production method.

5-4. tactile window - touch beyond desire John Locke used an expression “intellect is similar to eyes“ twice in his book [18]. He described human knowledge as a thing which is totally shut out from lights, and is similar to a small room to contain the idea from outside. This metaphor gives us two images; cave ( as a image of small room which shut from light) and eye or camera obscure (as a image of small crack for containing image from outside). In philosophical background, several people such as platon
Francis Bacon, Rene Descartes uses a
metaphor of cave for the relationship between visual sense and light. For example, Descartes compared mechanism of visual sense to the experience of walking in the dark with stick or that of the blinds. This can be said that visual sense is explained by one sort of ‘sense of touch’ with stick. As Jonathan Crary described in his book, Techniques of the Observer [19], sense of touch occupied most part of theory about visual sense from seventeenth century to eighteenth century and it is centered on camera obscure. Furthermore these argument between visual sense and sense of touch can be see in physical proof. As a given example by Herbert Read in his The Art of Sculpture [20], sculpture by the blind only [Figure38] with his sense of touch shows the fact that emphasized part in movement of the body is distorted largely. And this could be because he could not recreate the world relying on his visual sense so that its expression had to rely on its inner sense, that is sense of touch, the sense when we eat, and 18.

sense of movement. Yet all these sense relate to human activities. This proof can be connected the way which Cubist contained plural view point into two-dimensions not by describing things be seen but by describing things be known or moving. The core of vision, which is seeing and knowing what one sees, is a kind of logic of look. Through the hand - touch- there appears that human peeceives reality as incarnatgion. To investigating what is the most unknown about us, to go deeper into this great personal world that is nothing more than the darkness that feeds out irrational side, to establish a parallel world such as waiting which usual form of the city hung beside, can establish a physical and emotional contact with the space between dream and desire.

When we are waiting, our behavior remarkably tries to interact our surroundings. However, we can raise waiting time as an enjoyable experiment. Waiting sometimes had to be recognized while waiting. How we can coexist with unexpected experience? How we can raise it? Waiting is non-institutional. It is an open-ended situation. Experience itself could be similar to pregnancy. As woman’s representation and self-representation often involves her body as an inner topos, female sexuality itself is expressed as bodily topography. That is the space between mother and baby.

Conclusion Can waiting-time be a creative tool of the architectural language? Is it possible to reconstruct an experience of waiting in the city as a theatre? And how it could be created? In this thesis, while admitting a contradiction between what theatre serves us now and what we expect for the theatre, there can be found a theatrical phenomena which caused by dynamics of the city. That is, what city has naturally. No one pays for the time before show starts and no one willingly choose waiting in city situation, however when this accident happens, sometimes this situation only allowed to have a ‘reasonable’ relaxation. Assuming that waiting situation has a positive power such as relaxation, rising expectation, communication among unknown people, conversion of idea and so on, it might be possible to make up a daily diary in a city as a script. When the movement of modern theatre can be summarized on the idea of intertwined relationship between ‘see’ and ‘be seen’, this thesis project itself started to be a transformer from the result of direct observation to one theatrical piece.
boundary between stage and seat, hiding stage technologies and orchestra pit, there revealed a problematic sense of place causing not only by modernity but also by accelerating standardized culture. conclusion145
For example, sense of color in a tourist place or sense of time-passing as a result of questionnaire. It could be said, in our current context, place is not a physical, objective space. Sometimes place is in the mind, it is the images and sounds of the space passed through our memories. Suggestive events or forms could be generated by establishing a new contract with an architecture. Start from overhaul three-dimensional box-like theatre, where can be found the scattered pieces of the box? First of all, while referencing dismantling modern theatre, there are several key persons who dealt with theatre in direct way, such as Sumuel Beckett and William Forsythe. They incorporated silence (waiting) to make close contact between ‘see’ and ‘be seen’ as a method of their script. Their attempt could be summarized as reconstruction of the person-to-person relationships by uncertainty. Then as an architect draw arranging a building in site plan, a map of relationship that leads observer sensing a complex weave might be described as a secondary layer on the actual map. What situationnists drew through their own experience and what Bernard Tschumi drew overlaying his story might have a possibility of description of script on two-dimensions. we possibly can acquire experience at each scattered part of place, as if disentangling complicated knot which includes invisible lines such as density of time, luminous, heat,,,.
conclusion147
Secondary, looking through one scene of set-up daily diary while undoing intricate relationship between scenes and its layer of time, how each scene can be described including plural scenery under the multiple times? The idea that it is unable to capture form of whole architecture by one point of view, such as architectural workings by Brunelleschi, paintings which use technique of anamorphosis or thinking of space. Anamorphosis is, as it were, a technique which is interweaved different “plural space” , inconceivable to be compatible in one picture at the same time. ‘Ambassadors’ by Holbein is only express two view point and space, however it seems to have a power to make viewer more active than a picture drawn with one view point. By contrast, ‘Large Glass’ by Duchamp is also jumbled up plural images drawn from various view point in one space together. Therefore I think manipulation which scatter “plural space” is condition that be make expanse possible than space which express one concentrated thing. Human cannot escape from restriction of a view point originally, but can change the way of looking. Therefore it is possible to design temporal building type which is inherent ‘parallax’ like an experience that can look one by one each time. And view-point. a system arrange one body while designing as if individual were in the different space, not had a central somewhere.
conclusion149
Thirdly, description from above all reference in paintings have been based on the idea of quite mathematical perspective method, however how each scene could possibly be connected in lively way? As I intervene myself into the city to capture waiting condition, here revealed the fact that a bodily sense toward surroundings is the key issue to let space have a kinetic condition. In this section, to make more sensitive space for time-passing, I referenced a tactic condition of the space from choreography. However how these kinetic condition can be recollected as a theatrical experience? Now again looking back a element of modern theatre, there is one element I didn’t mention about, that is an orchestra pit and mechanical setting which had been hidden for emphasizing a ideal stage play. Space for the music is now getting smaller and smaller, as we can see a development of reproduction tool such as MP3 player which Large Glass from the collection of the words in the box which is called “green box” and through the “trunk box” [Figure46] posthumous work, every fragment of waiting could be put together again. Music box could be a small discovery by accident.
And when the feeling which we want to stay at the place longer starts, waiting time could be an important tool for reconsidering the identity of the place. Figure46 : Marcel Duchamp, trunk box,1941 conclusion151
