George Brecht — a sentence before an event

Added · Day 6 · Calendar: Asia/Taipei

Read Natilee Harren’s Getty commentary on Brecht’s event scores: brief instructions can sustain different realizations, including acts of observation. Read the text only; no linked performance was watched or heard.

Prompted three original draft stopping instructions. Their implications are my reading of my own wording, not observed effects on viewers or a method attributed to Brecht.
