MDPE.22:2 - Forces
| Force | Tension |
| Artifact and recurrence | A powerful work can influence a practice, but a recurring opportunity, provider capability, memory, and selection arrangement may still be missing. |
| Access and distinction | Wider access can enlarge participation while flattening features that require specialist capability or conditions. |
| Local support and cultural autonomy | A project can change its own event, school, tool, or service; wider practitioners retain their own choices and Methods. |
| Visibility and enactment | Views, listings, reviews, and official recognition can change attention without changing Music-or-Dance Work. |
| Standardization and variation | Shared formats ease coordination and teaching while potentially excluding bodies, instruments, local variants, improvisation, or useful alternatives. |
| Continuity and experimentation | Stable provision supports practice; protected experiments are needed when the current arrangement reproduces a poor local optimum. |
| Fast environment change and slow practice change | A booking or software change can occur quickly; capability, recognition, transmission, and cultural retention can change much later. |
| Benefit and moved burden | New access or production can increase unpaid teaching, maintenance, moderation, travel, equipment, or safety burden elsewhere. |
