Description

Notation of Hurley’s movements around the perimeter of a greenhouse in his performance Becoming-snail, showing where his tongue breaks contact with the glass and the orientation and length of his body.
The notation was conceived and drawn by Stephen Grace while watching a portion of the performance. It takes a plan view approach - i.e. seen from above.
Key:
Circle = tongue
Line = body
When the tongue breaks contact with the glass, orientation and extent of body is shown by the line extending from the circle
