I am considering using historical imagery to support my visualisation of sites of social reproduction and how this creates a tension between sameness, collectivity, identity and social identity. I think etiquette, particularly queuing due to its reminiscence of a human conveyor belt, is a good demonstrator of social choreography, action that is predetermined and predetermining.
the act of queing is not only expected but it demonstrates a conformity to uniformity. I’m not suggesting we stop queuing I’m just looking at aspects of ‘normal’, that continue to create an image of ‘normal’ – productive.
