Hi David, You wrote: >>> But for me, I'd call the mysterious signaling medium, "vision".

True enough, everybody has their eyes open in the classes when we do this in our standard curriculum, so certainly vision is commonly involved. On the other hand, some OTHER communication experiments we run sometimes, with leader's movements undetectable by intent onlookers, or even with follower's eyes closed, raise verrry interesting questions. As scientists like to say at the end of experimental conclusions, "More research is needed" ;) In any case, it's meant to be a transitory short-duration learning experience, to invite people to adopt a useful frame of reference for later learning.
