Would such "practice" require a physical venue? -- or would an online setting -- maybe even Skype -- be sufficient?
That's a good question. I don't know, but I suspect a purely online setting would be adequate for beginners, but insufficient for mastery.
What do you think?
I don't think you'd have much success mastering non verbal communication through skype.
Generally, I agree. There's a time and a place for both online and offline venues.
Ideally, you'd want a very large number of participants such that, during sessions, most of your peers are new and the situation is somewhat anonymous/random. If your sessions are with the same old people, these people will become well known -- perhaps friends, and the social simulation won't be very meaningful. Who knows.. maybe there's a way to piggyback on the Chatroulette concept?!
