Looking to alternative disciplines

One of the biggest challenges for me, designing a location-based game, was how to balance rhythmn, pace, location, and player energy. Whilst Ethnography, urban planning, space and meaning are frequently cited by location-based game designers, I think there may also be something important to learn from choreography.

Choreography (literally "dance-writing", also known as dance composition), is the art of making structures in which movement occurs, the term composition may also refer to the navigation or connection of these movement structures
