I am looking at the text, opened in front of me. l Reading is a gesture. l I trace the geometry of its lines, trying to slip off to the margins. l In the stillness of a page, I am trying to imagine the preceding and the forthcoming move. [slide] 

The performance refers to several kinds of texts and movements (from socialist celebrations to the anti-governmental uprising in Belarus in 2020-21) and traces the relationship between the language and actions, event and document, score and the political. The score, understood rather broadly, as any graphical or textual material describing and calling to action, operates in multiple temporalities: the past of a movement’s trace and a document, the future of the constantly imagined action, the present gesture of a reader.
