Sample Story


INST_001B.jpgThis is a controlled experiment in cause and effect. Please remain calm, and please don't talk while this ultra scientific experiment is under way. I thank you in advance for your cooperation in this study.

First, secretly choose someone in the circle without letting them know who he or she is. When I say go, I want you to position yourself 9 feet from this person. Go.

The group will move around until they meet this first objective.

Now that you have positioned yourself 9 feet from the person you chose, I want you to identify a second person, without letting them know who they are. When I say go, you must remain 9 feet from your first person and position yourself 6 feet from your second person. Go.

This time the group will take a bit of time to get set in their position.

Now identify a third person, and when I say go, position yourself 3 feet away from this person. Remember, you must remain 9 feet from the first person, 6 feet from the second and now 3 feet from your third. Go.

Let them work through this problem and notice what happens when everyone's actions affect everyone else.

Now identify yourself to your three chosen people. Try to maneuver into the final position using oral clues. Go.
