practices, and implications of performance in which site/location/landscape is
central. It will cover analyses of ‘site’ at its most local,
specific, and actual. It will address site-specificity in the realm of the
global and globalisation. It will situate site-specificity beyond the
‘purely’ spatial in order to examine what new/different discourses
appear to emerge. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
