I usually find it that people will rather avoid interaction with humans if they are in they are in the way of a persons path, rather than interact with them directly. So, it might be interesting to have the class sit in a stairway on campus, and fill up the entire first flight or so. People will then either try to fight their way through the crowded stairs, or they will go around some other way. I can't say it is art, but I'm not sure if any of this is art. However, this is an interesting experiment to see what the human mind will do when conflicted about interaction in an odd way. Anyway, you asked for certain rules to be in place.
1. The entire stairway must be filled with people. If it is of ease for someone to get around it is then the action has no point.
2. Do not move or interact with anyone who is trying to get by. If we ignore them then they will most likely go another route.
3. After 5 minutes of sitting down and causing traffic pattern changes, we can leave and re-open the stairway.
