"Visiting" is a temporary environment where personal and community relationships are built and maintained through conversation. The domestic setting acts as a site of containment for both physical and nonphysical objects of memory and documents the network of relationships being constructed. Tea, coffee, and cookies are served to seductively initiate conversation, mediate the span of conversation, and allow a link between the intellectual and corporeal aspects of communication.
