本文從身體芭蕾講起，歷經地方芭蕾、時空途徑、產業結構與地方發展的鋪陳，以迄生活經緯和工藝傳統的複合描述，始終貫穿其中的主軸視點是韻律(rhythm)的探索。韻律不僅是身體感覺的律則性表現，同時延展爲生活與生產向度的交織軌跡，在歲月起伏的地方可以找到它，在空間交會的根抵處亦可以觸及到它。它是反身映照人與人、人與物、人與時空產生親密關係的溝通要素，無論展露在工藝與身體美學的應和共鳴，還是蘊藏著時空結構與地方生活經緯的傳遞因子，都表示人活在世界上安頓、超越自己，能夠以交互契合、變易來演繹合理而適度的存在定理。
This article begins with the body ballet, going through place ballet, time-space routines, industrial construction and place development, and coming to a complete depiction of life contents and technical tradition. It is centered on the discovery of the rhythm. The rhythm is not only the rhythmic expression of body feeling, but also blended with the extended dimensions of life and production. It can be traced in the passage of time, as well as in the interconnection of space and time. It forms the element of communications in the relationship between human beings and all things.
Whether the rhythm is expressed in the concert of technology and body aesthetics, or in the relay of time-space construction and place-life contents, it is the very thing to help man logically and properly exist in the world by way of settling down, surpassing himself, and being mutually adjustable.
