site specificity redux

Site specificity came around again today. I'd done a post about it at the beginning of the month. I was working today with Bronwen on whether we should propose "Performance scores" for LCGFT and came across a webpage entitled In Terms of Performance which is "a keywords anthology designed to provoke discovery across artistic disciplines." It includes three short essays on site, by Simon Dove, Tania El Khoury, and Joanna Haigood.

As I looked for help in the Art & Architecture Thesaurus on performance scores, I was somewhat distressed to find "scores (documents for music)" and "dance notation" in totally different hierarchies (documents and writing styles, respectively).

In Janine Antoni's short essay on choreography, she lists "Ikea pictographic instructions for assembling furniture" in her list of references.
