“Chaos often breeds life, when order breeds habit.” (James, Henry)

A structure is usually built of a foundation, a strong and determining point of beginning, where all the rest diversify. One can never question all structures, as everything is structured. One can only question the notion of a structure by evading it and analyzing it from the outside. What if two seemingly different structures combine, collide or clash? Would it be chaotic? How can one compare and contrast a rigid structure with an innocent one, what if the rules of the game where to change?

This performance is the experimentation of this clash and collision, the point in which two different structures combine and interact.
