Paragraphs about our location:

Jessica - The spot that we picked has a place were people can stand and watch, we can make all different sounds with the things around us and Its close to school. Next to the space is a day care and houses so we can do part of our dances can be made by the movements that kids would do or movements that people would do in their houses.

Tyikenyua- Our location is in an alleyway, inside a parking lot. We picked that location because it was different and it caught our attention as we walked by. The lot has a stairway and a balcony but its pretty much empty space. This location will sort of be a challenge because we have to work with what we have and incorporate sounds. We have to manage our environment in this setting and I think that will be interesting!

Kenny - The place we picked is in an alleyway and it has a garage and parking lot. As we were walking it caught our attention because of the empty space area with stairs and railings where people could stand or where we can perform. We could perform from the top then go to the bottom, because of the emptiness and closeness in the area. It’s going to be a challenge to create sounds to match this environment.

Sara- Our group chose a parking lot off of an alleyway. We chose this because it has a set of stairs, and railings so when performing we could have people on the ground and above. I think that this would add multiple dimensions and details to our dance. We also liked it because there is a place the audience could stand. It is very quiet and an unexpected place to have a performance. There is a garage type thing, and a deck too which would be very cool to do something in. I think that there are multiple possibilities for this space, which is why we chose it.

Jalisa- For our AIO project location we chose a parking lot. Although the parking lot may seem small, it has a lot of structural detail that gives us more to work with when we begin our project. We decided to choose this location, because it is also a challenge, to work in the area, knowing that at any moment something may change the movements and sounds that we hear that we may need to incorporate into our dance. Overall, I think we all liked the location and made a wise decision.
