Thoughts on Bouncers Idea

I like the bouncers idea as they can have an important effect on the atmosphere of an event and often enforce rules that probably don't officially exist. How do you guys think it would be best to put this idea into practice? Maybe we just try out different ways of dressing or talking or try going into places in different groupings based on gender or race to see if we're treated differently? We could even take it a step further than bouncers and look at the way other members of staff at an event treat you based on the ways you behave or look. A good experiment might be: can you get in on the guest list by dressing or acting a certain way? haha. The only thing is I think we should be careful about staying away from exploring literal rules rather than unwritten social norms and behavioural constraints; studying the behaviour of staff could start to slip into that.
