We did a Zoom rehearsal together with Sandra and Cynthia together in Munich and did some improvisational explorations based on a news story of Turkey threatening to export Dutch cows for political reasons: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4316788/Turkey-s-red-meat-association-sends-cows-Holland.html
password for both: "cow"
Shy read pieces of a news article, while Meena improvised with footwork and Sandra and Cynthia with hands in response to the text.

On the second take, we tried to interact more with each other rather than simply responding to the text. Shy spoke parts of the story again, while Meena, Sandra and Cynthia improvised with hands. We attempted to choreograph the camera frames of the dancing hands so that our actions would appear to directly affect each other. However, Zoom saved the video so that Sandra and Cynthia's frame was flipped horizontally, so it ended up looking different than we imagined.
