Talking is a live performance

I spend time in a place that enables me to forget my own place, position and daily life. I try to erase myself in preparation for listening and for new ideas and directions... to absorb a place from the perspective of others. If I know nothing about it, it is important to me. Talking is my means of research, this is a live performance-research process. - Emily Pringle in An Architecture of Interaction, ISBN: 978-90-9022039-0
