I recorded this video on my way home from Baruch. After getting off at 36th Street train station in Sunset Park, I decided to take a video of the express train I noticed pulling into the station. This choreography is that of the people of New York City and how they travel back and forth between locations through subways. There is a specific way to get on and off these trains, we always see people getting off first and others getting on afterward. They always head straight to the exits, sometimes looking around to find signs to indicate where it is. People’s behaviors are entirely expected and predictable, but this movement system is interesting to observe nonetheless.

I find it interesting how you used an inanimate object’s predictable properties to play into the behavior of humans. It’s often easy for us to overlook such things since they’re so incorporated into our daily lives, great job finding such interesting movements!
