Moving Sites
Moving Sites explores site-specific dance practice through a combination of analytical essays and practitioner accounts of their working processes. In offering this joint effort of theory and practice, it aims to provide dance academics, students and practitioners with a series of discussions that shed light both on approaches to making this type of dance practice, and evaluating and reflecting on it.

Hunter
Hunter Dun Leigh, heir to the largest cotton plantation in Georgia, is the quintessential Southern gentleman. Beautiful women vie for his love: Chantal de Valréas, his true love, whom he cannot marry but will never forget; Alezandra Whitfield, a Virginia blue blood; Lady Victoria, his aristocratic wife; and Sukie, his concubine. In the midst of his privileged existence, the War Between the States erupts, threatening Hunter's way of life. Hunter answers the South's call to arms while his brother, Ambrose, a staunch abolitionist, joins the North. When he meets Ambrose on the fields of Gettysburg, it is brother against brother in a contest that epitomizes the country's struggle. But as the guns fall silent and America struggles to recover, Hunter returns to Georgia and a world he no longer recognizes. Now he must begin rebuilding his life and his home. But will he ever find inner peace?
Site, Dance and Body
How does the moving, dancing body engage with the materials, textures, atmospheres, and affects of the sites through which we move and in which we live, work and play? How might embodied movement practice explore some of these relations and bring us closer to the complexities of sites and lived environments? This book brings together perspectives from site dance, phenomenology, and new materialism to explore and develop how ‘site-based body practice’ can be employed to explore synergies between material bodies and material sites. Employing practice-as-research strategies, scores, tasks and exercises the book presents a number of suggestions for engaging with sites through the moving body and offers critical reflection on the potential enmeshments and entanglements that emerge as a result. The theoretical discussions and practical explorations presented will appeal to researchers, movement practitioners, artists, academics and individuals interested in exploring their lived environments through the moving body and the entangled human-nonhuman relations that emerge as a result.
