If you have performed site-specific work in an enormous setting, then you get that chance to see the far horizon as part of your movement. But in the theatre and in old victorian mansions and in the dark under an overpass, sight plays a very different role than it does in my nest-cage in the middle of a well-traversed thoroughfare.
