  2. For The Living Newspaper: On Location, Laser turns a theater audience into a live focus group that reflects on the public reception of current events. Drawing therapeutic, market research, and agitprop theater techniques, performers recruited members of the audience to participate in interviews set in a television news studio on stage. The proceedings were be filmed, altered with live green screen effects and simultaneously projected in real time.
