You see a small sheet of paper covered in jagged strips of tape and quick pencil marks. The lines look rushed, almost like a sketch made in the dark. This is a study for *Meat Joy*, a performance where people danced with raw meat, wet paint, and plastic. The tape here stands in for bodies moving fast—you can almost hear the noise. If you want to see how artists turn messy ideas into live art, look up Carolee Schneemann.
