Assignment 8

Hokay, so for this assignment, I did a bunch of performance art things. I originally chose to do the time loop experiment by having many different people ask a mall personell for directions to the same store every five minutes; However, it was a lot harder than I thought to get people to do it, and time was running out. So I changed my plan to: just me, asking the same person for different store locations every five minutes. So I found the guy in his red coat, standing in the same position, and started asking questions.
1: I asked him where Hot Topic was. He had no unordinary reaction, gave me thurough directions, and was helpful.

2:(another security person had joined him) I asked him where Libby Lu was. He recognized me, gave thurough directions again, and asked " Anything else I can help you with?"

3: I asked him where Best Buy was. He grinned when he saw me approach, gave directions again, also saying "Its right where you just were" and then said again: "Anything ELSE I can help you with?" again I replied no and as I left, he explained to the woman: " He asked me where Best Buy was, Hot Topic, and Libby Lu!"

As I was making my way around to ask him another question, he and the other woman walked away. So I decided to follow some people.

I followed an odd couple. Well, the guy was odd. He was wearing a womans shirt from H&M.
First, they went to Macy's. When they were in there, they stopped to look at:
Girls clothes(ages 2-6)
Boys clothes (ages 2-6)
and on the way out they looked at some wierd jackets.

They then went to the parking lot, got in thier red car and left.

So I then decided to look for the guy I was harrasing earlier, to ask him some more questions because I wasnt satisfied yet.
So I headed to the food court and there he was. So I asked him another question.

4: I asked him where Starbucks was. I'm not sure if he recognised me, he gave me a very blunt and quick answer. He did not seem amused anymore.
So before I could ask him again, he walked away. So I followed him and he ended up leaving in an employee exit.

So one more thing that I did was find a random person talking on their phone and pretend to talk on my phone right next to them. I would then repeat and paraphrase everything they were saying.
I did it to two people and neither of them noticed. One was talking about a movie and how they were getting home. The other was talking to her boyfriend, so that was amusing.

Overall, I think I got some good reactions, and learned some things about random people. good times.
