This article proposes a methodological approach to site-oriented and expanded performance documentation practice. Taking a performance laboratory work that was carried out in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, as an example, it discloses how a specific place can be mapped, sensed, and recorded, especially through a mode of performing while documenting. By emphasizing the narrative qualities and/or layers of a recorded material, this mode seeks to develop the narrative agency of a camera. On the one hand, by exploring the tensions and/or boundaries between the documentary and fictional and on the other, by experimenting with the ways in which a recorded material can be described, portrayed and especially, be rewritten through an editing and archival process. In so doing, this article employs both writing and audio-visuality to not only trace a series of exercises and actions undertaken by a group of performing and/or documenting bodies at a public square in Rio de Janeiro. It also offers an insight into the design of a documentation process in which the camera operates both as a documentary and creative source.

本文提出了一种面向站点和扩展的性能文档实践的方法论方法。以在巴西里约热内卢开展的一项表演实验室工作为例，它揭示了一个特定地点是如何被映射、感知和记录的，尤其是通过表演和记录的方式。通过强调记录材料的叙事质量和/或层次，这种模式寻求发展叙事机构的相机。一方面，通过探索纪录片和虚构之间的张力和/或界限，另一方面，通过尝试描述、描绘记录材料的方式，特别是通过编辑和存档过程重写。为此，本文同时采用写作和视听手段，不仅追溯一组表演和/或记录机构在里约热内卢公共广场进行的一系列练习和行动。它还提供了对记录过程设计的洞察力，在该过程中，相机既可以作为记录来源，也可以作为创意来源。
