Introduction

The video: Performed by Ensemble for Experimental Music and Theater (2015)

Excerpt from the book 

'Using only clicks (the shortest sounds we can make) each individual in the group tries to locate a space (silence) in which to place their click (dot). Because of the group activity, the silences are minute and pass by rapidly, so by the time you have heard a space, and attempted to put a dot in it, that space may have vanished..

Group size? No data or feedback on this, the group size question is asking is there an optimum, minimum and maximum group size for this to work?

Fun value is ten out of ten
