Stilettos are indispensable for gliding backwards---reluctantly, pointedly, delicately. Long flowing hair does not belong; it suggests gravitation. The function, communication, dictates shape.
Common to both dance and architecture is the principle that what looks better feels better. Dancing is an inherently urban activity. A choreographed ballet is an exercise in urban planning. A social dance is an evolving medieval city. Awareness of, and merging with, others is an urban pursuit.
One experiences oneself through others, who motivate one to be, to change---or to have the others replaced. The gratification from enlisting (with) others merges the selfish and the selfless. It is an evolved stimulus for social learning.

Sheldon in Honduras
The music is just a bit too loud. The cigarette smoke is just a bit too thick. The place is just a bit too perfect. One can think in silence, in shorthand, and breathe the pure oxygen of civilisation.
Enveloped in the bossa nova rhythm, the girls kiss, audibly, with a cigarette tucked between two fingers. The lighting is cinematic, the smoke natural, the red deep and soft, the blue distant, the soundtrack muted orange. The patrons traverse; ever polite, the waiters manoeuvre, assist, never serve.
