The 6th Sense of an Actor
One of the things that had stood out for me when reading this article about "The Action of Seeing" was when it had talked about Zeami, and his thoughts about an actor's sixth sense. The article talks about how performers can see the environment around themselves and how this implies that something is always happening behind them. By doing this, the performers activate some sort of impulse in the spinal column that's ready to be triggered for use by the performer. Through this, performers are ready to act, and react.
