Week two, today we headed back out on to Lincolns high street, this time with set of instructions written by other members of the class. This task was set by Steve, and inspired by Carl Laverys article, teaching performance studies.
Our first instruction was to simply let go of the instructions and follow them for five minutes with it being an incredibly windy day in Lincoln my group and myself knew that this was a terrible idea from the get go. We did let go of the instructions however, and followed them. Looking back into last week’s conversation on tacit agreements it was interesting to see that passers-by would stand on the piece of paper, attempting to pick it up for us as we were following the instructions. Asking them to let it go again led to some very confused people. Due to the wind, the instructions blew into a bush and stayed there for the further five minutes.
Other instructions given included:
