1. Considering to have food as part of the show – cross cultural, 2 minutes food fest
2. Part by part, different groups，instruments，styles together.
3. Considering using color as a big feature in some aspects of the performance.
a. We could wear different colors in context of the performance.
b. Color theory in relation to music (e.g. Scriabin. Scriabin could see different colors with the tones that he heard. The Philadelphia Orchestra once played Scriabin and projected the colors that went along with it.)
4. Setting up a deaf student with a computer that enabled him to have a sense of pitch/combinations of pitches with the length/duration as a graph. He was able to graphically create compositions. They didn't have musical coherence, but if you take something strange and listen to it over and over, you start to create connections.
5. Adding voice in different styles – different characteristics of regions/dialects
6. Adding different countries’ music – matching pictures and movies.
7. Chinese instruments （e.g. Guqin & Zither）
8. We could do a vocal improvisation – Sprechstimme- Scheonberg’s postmodern music.
9. Percussion instruments in the resource room on the 7th floor that we could make use of.
10. Consider audience involvement – bring them into the scene or bring them onto the stage, or going to them.
11. Color coding drumsticks or gloves, or something, with cue cards to direct participants with beats.
12. Compose a small melody with lyrics
13. We could improvise dance based on the different tasted – taste as scores
14. Make a plotline / scenes; find a way to link everything as narrative. （e.g. morning & afternoon & evening / school / West and Chinese music / international students）
