After this part of the lecture, we proceeded to break up into our table groups in order to do an activity. We were given an element of design to use and figure out a way to demonstrate it through sound only. We got the term 'shape'. Our strategy was standing in a circle around the group and clapping, stomping and snapping altogether in a sequence to display the illusion of shape. It seemed we did it well, too, because everyone guessed it right.
