Examples
“The arts have⟳ traditionally employed devices that seem designed to assist the spectator in lifting the occasion out of any practical context and placing it in a special, autonomous space of its own⟳. The pedestal and the stage⟳ raise⟳ sculpture and theatre above the plane of ordinary life, the frame and the proscenium arch separate⟳ art and performances from their surroundings, special halls for the visual arts and for music provide⟳ what the cathedral does for religious worship⟳, a sanctified space removed from the concerns of daily life.”
“I started using filmic grammar, rather than traditional proscenium arch grammar, because I worked in the round primarily.”
