Improv Everywhere

I like making people uncomfortable, causing scenes and pretending I am able to create performance art. Thus I love Improv Everywhere and their mass of YouTube videos in which they pull off quirky acts of mass participation in public places. One event had a group of 200 or so holding in the same position for 5 minutes in Grand Central Station. Another event was an impromptu seeming musical in a food court.
A local comedy/improv group worked on a similar project involving folks listening to directions and going through a series of actions through mp3 player headphones. I missed the event, but aim to participate in a future improv experience.
