• Students “feelthoughts”… • Participants swing into new positions, roles and social relations. • Participants experiment new ways to express, represent,
communicate and experience life and self. • Critical self and context awareness is enhanced through the
process of ascension. • An experience of being capable and self-efficiency is achieved. • Site-specific capacities which influence the public sphere are
created, rehearsed and multiplied. • An Aesthetic proposal is collaboratively generated. • A rehearsal of small, but significant,
revolutions is achieved…
