People were very curious about MeMento Mori and this first round was a bit crowded, over 40 people came to the show. Most people were from UIAH, but also some unexpected guests from outside the university showed up.
I was the "host" at the fireman's Miniroom guiding people around and Tommi was on the floor inside the fireman's suit (we decided that it would look more realistic). It was really funny because people didn't know that and they got really scared when they realized a real person was there. Some tried to poke him - poor Tommi!
In the end of the first show it felt great, a big relief that all went well (and the best for me, nobody got hurt!). Of course we noticed we need to make some adjustments to improve the flow along the different areas, and some installations need minor corrections for better performance. But as we spoke to people in the audience later, everybody seemed to have had a good time and the winner was surprisingly the rope pulling contest – something totally unexpected for the audience!
Also the talking duck back at the Foyer before leaving the place got a lot of positive feedback, people didn’t mind queuing for a long time just to listen to it giving them a personal comment (also printed) and speaking out their name…
