The first 10 minutes are always well received. It certainly has to do with the expectation created around the initial moment. The following moment already raise some questions. Many people are shocked by the crudeness of the actions; an intricate, yet basic choreography of daily movements. Others feeling even insulted manifest their discomfort. Others still, awaken by the minimal and apparently empty actions, lean slightly forward to see better what is going on: a ritual that resembles the actions of a craftsman executing simple gestures around a chair.
