The exercise in class got me thinking:

The actions the class performed did not match the material. Actions were divorced from purpose. It created an irrational context. Movements and gestures were no longer a means to an end to further the script, but an end unto themselves. Movements, actions and gestures, devoid of function become aestheticized, much like the Readymades of Marcel Duchamp. After all, isn't that what art is?... that which has no purpose?
