Because one can hear sounds behind oneself as well as those with sources inside the body (digestion, circulation, respiration, etc), two sets of terms are placed in opposition: exterior/front/sight and interior/back/hearing.

Intimacy has nothing to do with a taboo. It’s just something private. I literally want to be in the middle of my actors: I don’t want that there is any distance between the two bodies, and I want to be between them. I don’t want to see their intimacy but experience it.
