How did the site of DongMen alter the choreography that you created in the classroom?
The site was bigger than we thought so we had to adjust our positions. The floor was rife with ponds so we had to avoid them. Overall, what we created was the same with what we performed.
Now that you know this site better; If you were to go back to Dongmen what would you add or subtract from your choreography to make it stronger?
I would try to make our choreography creepy since the site is creepy. I would add more creepy dance moves so we looked more like ghost dancers. I would maybe shoot it at night so it would look like a ghost town.

What were your reactions to the location in general? What is it like for you to witness people living in relative poverty in a place like DongMen surrounded by the relative wealth of Hsinchu? What would you do with a place like DongMen if you were the mayor of Hsinchu? Would you tear it down? leave it? try to revive the industry there? allow people to live there or not?
I thought the place was kind of dirty. I wouldn't want to live there. Almost everywhere you go, there's poverty. I saw worse on TV and some other media, so I was not shocked. If I was the mayor, I would try to revive the industry there. The DonMen market is part of Hsinchu's history, and it's important that we keep it there.
