Abstract
This proposal paper recommends changing the current condition options for Expression: duration to exclude the option to record the total duration of aggregating expressions. It also includes a proposal to remove a condition and options for Work: duration of representative expression element, and a proposal for a new element for Manifestation: duration of embodied content that would record the duration of embodied content for manifestations with embodied content in temporal form (including performed music, sounds, spoken word, two-dimensional and three-dimensional moving images, and performed movement) or embodied content with an envisioned temporal duration (including notated music and notated movement).
