Misunderstanding
How bare can you strip a conversation before it ceases to reflect any aspect of the original communication? What sort of accents and rearranging of words can you apply without disturbing the content? If you explain an idea to a bunch of people, how much will their impressions/understanding vary, and will the "average" impression reflect the original idea?

opening doors
Film people, either in still film or video, opening doors with keys. Film lots of different people. Film them being frustrated, being excited, being rushed, being bored, dropping their keys, trying to use the wrong keys, using the right key on the first try. Then, either:
1) Put all the pictures (or video) together in a collection for people to see as a unit
or
2) Tape a picture of someone else opening a different door next to every doorknob that you filmed.
