Based on ethnographic research at the Areopagos (Mars Hill) in Athens, Greece, this essay seeks to enact a performative poetics of global intersubjectivity. Emphasizing the spatiality of social being and the materiality of discourse, I argue that heterogeneous encounters at charged heterotopic spaces such as the Areopagos offer ways of theorizing belonging that do not assume their interdependent parts have any one necessary thing in common. The simultaneous heterogeneity of the rock offers a way to rethink globalization as producing and being produced by what I call “co-incidences”: events of coming together in space about which the question of causality must remain suspended. In so doing, the essay supplements theories of performances as twice behaved in time with a theory of performances as once behaved in space
