I have been describing the Dynamosphere as a floating world whose only solid landmarks are the mysterious islands of Action, Passion, Vision, and Spell. How then does one travel in this fluid environment?
Fortunately, six “incomplete efforts” connect the floating islands of the drives. These “incomplete efforts” are constructed of only two motion factors. Yet they provide vital transportation links for travellers wishing to explore the Dynamosphere.
Also known as “effort states,” the six incomplete efforts are as different as the Action, Passion, Vision and Spell islands they connect. Laban flagged these variations in the names he chose for the effort states – dream and awake, mobile and stable, near and remote.
For a guided tour of these six contrasting effort states, join the upcoming MoveScape Center excursion, “Incomplete Efforts” (Mostly), beginning in late February.
