Operative terms

Assignment:Identify moments of qualitative change, and put into words their properties and behaviors; articulate their spatial effects. Generate a list of operative terms (8 1/2 x 11 portrait, Arial 12 point), so that you can describe the observed with great and greater specificity. The terms are taken from the world of fitness, yet describe universal spatial operations (ex. crossing, stretching, racking).

Operative terms- Fitness sequences

Sequence 1- Side lunges
Lifting, dropping, extending, closing, overlapping, bending, condensing, consolidating, stretching, rotating

Sequence 2: Bent knee dead lift
Crossing, overlapping, compressing, elongating, shorting, straightening

Sequence 3: Side leg lift
Expanding, lifting, opening, closing, fixed, stretching, aligning, rotating, crossing

All of them: Branching, fork, deviation, dichotomous branching, crossing, extending, alternating
