A chair in the room? The door to leave? The program handed out to the
audience? The audience? The light bulb illuminating the room? The food
that audience ate while watching? The videotape that was being used to
record the performance? The city in which the performance took place?
I think that's splitting hairs. If the light bulb is important to you then add
it to your data. With RDF it's always pretty much up to you what you do, right?
The ontology user and data publisher is as responsible for data integration as
is the ontology designer. And if the data consumers thing you went too far and
have too much noise in your data then you have to fix that.
And while the Event ontology doesn't state event:Factor and geo:SpatialThing to
be distinct (maybe they didn't want to make such statements about other
people's terms - with OWL 2 they could do this for event:factor and event:place
now though) I think it's pretty obvious that you're supposed to use event:place
for the city in which the performance took place (or more exactly for the venue
which is in the city).
