potential overall structure for 150v

First three minutes: Kimi gives audience instructions on how this is going to work (via phone... talking to one audience member who repeats the instructions for all to hear? or is Kimi mic'ed?). At the same time, Brianne and Michelle set up the movement vocabulary (establish repeatable sequence).

Minutes 4-14: Some arrangement of our 3 sets of 5 minutes (obviously edited and/or overlapping to now fit into eleven minutes). Perhaps there is a recorded distant scream that goes every minute so we can track the time. During these minutes, the following progressions take place:

- pain of learner morphs into pain of teacher
- lists of words turn into more silence, along with buzzer sounds (and ticking of egg timers?)
- "normal" interaction becomes more and more distant, disconnected, questioning, stylized
- audience members seemingly have less and less choice over their own actions over the 11 minutes (have to follow Kimi's directions)

Minute 15: a debrief. This might be a short paragraph (or a couple sentences) that all three of us read (ie, "You have been participating in an experiment...")
