the trio sequence of dancers, when each dancer starts a certain movement or pose, the leftover two dancers would follow in a similar fashion. The domino effect is constantly rolling into play without being directed by the beat of the music, but the sound of ocean waves. As the ocean waves have unexpected long pauses, the next movement or domino effect cannot be predicted by the audience; unexpectedly, this is all intentional. Each movement is intentionally “misplaced” as it breaks the boundaries…

In her book, “Perspectives on Contemporary Issues,” Katherine Anne Ackley states, in chapter one, many substantial points on how to carefully analyze and understand written work.
