Herd I is a performance that exists only as the collective written memory of participants.

Participants stand, eyes closed, in the middle of the indoor arena at Superior Stables. After a few quiet minutes, large hoofbeats permeate the air as Officer Eugene rides his clydesdale, Jade, into the arena. The horse and rider walk, trot and canter in a circle around the group, switching direction to repeat the gaits. Horse and rider exit the arena.
