I liked Jeffs suggestion of letting the audience lead the way of odysseus
(we do have to keep this in mind - maybe for later interpretations). I mean
this myth and homers line are so full of possibilites, we just have to find
out what fits to our interpretation,
because Lees answer seems right to me now:
the fate and the Gods.
Do we want the audience to be the gods or do we want "us" to be the gods?
As I see our project now, for me it is too komplex to experiment with the
audience to much. that was what i meant to let the technicians be the gods.
Because they do have to keep the control during the ongoing of the play.
I would like to have the concentration of the project on the fist hand on
the communication between the real actors and virtual actors - that means
the ongoing on the stage.
So as Jeff already said
> why not have the script ready
When we know how this interaction will go and how we can tell the story with
these methods we can furthermore think about the inclusions of the audience

btw. I was thinking a lot about the centralistic point this project already
has, I hope this will soon get more decentral ....
