Recording date
9 September 1977

Overview

Third in the 'Retsukigou' series. Three dancers each stare into a mirror they hold, performing simple actions such as walking and falling onto their backs. They turn the mirrors to objects in the studio, uttering their names and characteristics. Two go into the corridor, and the audience perceive their movements through the sound of their voice. When one returns, the other leaves. The cycle is repeated with the mirror put down, looking directly at things, and speaking from memory without looking at anything. At the end, movements are performed in relation to the space.
