Push, shove, trip. React.
Without a doubt, our behaviors and attitudes differ depending on any given situation. But it is the candid nature of our reactions that we are vaguely aware about. And then there is the reaction to a reaction.
Personally, when an event of some sorts is happening, I tend to look more at a performance or the results instead of what is happening around me. The idea of capturing people's reaction, then, becomes an intriguing concept worth exploring: seeing if each individual reacts the same as the next person.
