Notes on Stadiums; Organisation, Myth, Drama, Projection, History, Rhythm, Opposition, Gift, Promise, Temporality, Fanaticism

30 January 2024, Arie brought up ‘monumentality and fragility’ after the first performative reading I did with this text. I remember clearly that he said, the more impressive the stadium, the more agonising the failure - in this case, the loss of a home game. Men cry in stadiums!, he continued. I said Amen to that.
