< Audience responses had a profound effect on the telling of the story, guiding the narrator in different directions, even to alternative endings for the story. Basso argues that the immediate needs of the community were reflected in the responses, guiding the story in directions such that the telling of the story in that place and time for that audience achieved a desired goal, e.g. motivating the community towards some action, increasing communal solidarity, providing assurance in a moment of adversity, etc. >

Glen and I had a colleague once that never created slide decks.   He said he wanted to see where the audience went and he couldn't do that with a static deck.   He would use transparencies and a felt-tip pen.   And here I thought he was just too lazy to make one.   There is just no substitute for a total lack of preparation.   :-)
