Stage zone.  Compositional process of upholding theatrical conventions -- spacetime, character constructs, storytelling procedures.  

Tones and atmospheres of expectation. 

Rhythms, codes, and sensations are transmitted/absorbed, 

dynamically constrained/converged/accumulated in an

<actor> at chair + table

who assumes a dispositional stance of //relaxed poise, curious and ready to engage//

which corresponds/diverges with >>the dynamic agential roles of patron, surveiller, analyzer, & narrator >>

++the delivery is functional++

yet it also involves==skillful, performative collaboration among these roles, & between performer & environment==

ACTOR1 as <patron><surveiller><analyzer>

Cafe zone.  Compositional process of conversation by people sitting about.  Warm, relaxing atmosphere.  The rhythms and sensations of the room are transmitted and absorbed, dynamically constrained/corresponded/converged/accumulated in these gatherings:

<patron>//sitting in chair, table at window/relaxed/curious//>>casual spectator of passersby outside>>++dwelling, drinking, observing++

<sound> misc cafe actors in background, apparent through clanking of cups; soft conversation; shuffling; misc service activity

<lighting>reflecting changing interior movements in cafe, but also street activity (reflections of moving cars etc) through glass window

Monitoring/Analyzing zone.  (also written as control room.)  Process of surveying -- filtering, stabilizing, & relating data in standardized organizational structures.  Analytical categories, standards, and procedures.  Atmosphere of vigilance.  Rhythms and sensations are dynamically constrained/converged/accumulated in 

<surveiller>//sitting at window/attentive/curious//>>scanning passersby on street outside>>++surveying, searching correspondences++

//studiously//parsing analytical objects from afar++analyzing, searching correspondences++

ACTOR2 as <narrator><surveiller><analyzer>

Narration zone.  Storytelling conventions used to describe the above.  Rhythms & sensations are constrained/accumulated in these gatherings:

<narrator>//sitting onstage as at window/responsible/attentive//>>speaking about surveiller in the 3rd person as a figure, 

yet converging/diverging with this role of surveiller/figure at times, and temporarily corresponding to it in 1st person>>

++describing; hanging, drinking; surveying++==skillful collaboration between these 'experts'; dwelling together==

Narration/Analysis zone.  Rhythms & sensations constrained/accumulated in:

<narrator/analyzer>//sitting onstage as at window/responsible/attentive//>>speaking about surveiller in the 3rd person as an analytical object, yet converging close to this role of surveiller/object at times, and temporarily corresponding to it in 1st person>>

++describing; hanging, surveying; analyzing++==skillful collaboration between these 'experts'; dwelling together==

ACTORS3 as <passersby>, specifically instantiated in <oldman>

Street zone.  Varied pacings and flows, shopping, commuting, strolling.  Urban textures.  Stand-in for larger urban constructs.

Rhythms & sensations are transmitted/absorbed; they are dynamically constrained/corresponded/converged/accumulated in gatherings of

<passersby>++maneuvering, commuting, socializing++
