how can you direct the actions of the viewer?
Using a makey-makey and the software isadora, I am working on an interactive installation. I want to bring my voice to the viewer to give them the text in a spoken format, while allowing the viewer to have a more personal and intimate moment with the object.
I have been struggling with how to design this with the effort of getting a specific action out of the viewer without necessarily telling them to. How far can I even expect to direct someone?

and then
it fades
but the chair is still wet
