performance action/requirements

• 2 speakers
• exchange-string overlap contiguous speech/mechanic device assembly envelope bursts
• the exchange bursts consist of narrative speech and speech envelope-pattern bursts produced with mechanic assemblies
• two speakers using evoked speech bursts and inflective synchronously modulated device-produced sounds using mechanic assemblies of handheld devices
• mechanic assembly sound production approaches envelope and pattern envelopes of the speech bursts modulated through mode variant levels (4)
• two speakers are faced as closely as possible: device arrays are in parallel match placement
• no content rehearsal: use empty target models for rehearsal of a fixed program of goal strings
• for a performance (each speaker):

1. select a string of mode signs
2. the ranges of signs must be exclusive
3. select an extent of node content stream elements (11-43): each speaker uses the same number of sign element increments
4. associate serially, reading left to right through the strings, concurrent elements from each string table [a-f]

performance mechanism

• one of two speaker sources begins: use any formation content stream and translation burst mode selection
• alternate (response) speaker: assess instant track content using requirements of first element association
• mutual increment through goal elements using first associated inflection evaluation goal
• continue exchange overlay through end of signal element set
• use no start/end mechanism of preparation gesture ensemble
• use isolate placement of speaker pair in presentation space
• no specialized lighting

notation

• tables [a], [b], [c], [d], [e], [f] provide goal strings

	[a]	content streams: select six mutually agreed content sources of narrative and mechanic device gesture (a-f)
	[b]	content devices: eight mutually agreed program variables of narrative and gesture-narrative translation (1-8)
	[c]	pattern models: five mutually agreed production strategies (! @ % ^ *)
	[d]	mode mechanisms of production of five mutually agreed strategies of device and speech envelope and pattern integration
	[e]	focus goals using four mutually agreed strategies (A-D)
	[f]	inflection level goals are requested in four modes (1-4)

• narrative progression and envelope copy: follow content and pattern focus consequent translation
• device, pattern, mode, focus and inflection goals: remain within the definition targets throughout working
