walking can be performing art.
theres a dude who walks down tha street with a parasol, going at a pace of about a foot every two seconds (that's real slow walkin, folks). while all the other folk moving in an outta stores for they shoppin, this fella is just moseying along, but he ends up gettin to the end of the street fast as any window shoppers. sorta like the tortoise an the hare.

Have you heard of the Theatre of the Oppressed?
Augusta Boal in Peru created a movement by the people for the people.

One of the exercises was to divide a group into 2 with a central line. The idea is to get to the line, but the winner is the one who takes the longest.
Very cool exercise, by the way, to elevate concentration.

interesting. how does this relate to the idea of "guerilla theatre"?
there's an insane and awesome film from the late Sixties by Bernardo Bertolucci called "Partner" which is sort of an amalgam of Dostoevski's Double, Artaud's Theatre and its Double, and some anarchistic antics and critique of consumer society. street theatre as radicalism is presented.

My friend Clint briefly mentions from time to time "the time when I was walking at the Duck Pond with an umbrella & a clarinet being followed by a Swedish person."
The picture alone that this communicates to me is fantastic art
(apparently the clarinet was brought to attempt communication with the ducks)
