A critique of reason - Arbit theory of the week

Flash Mobs are groups of people(strangers to each other) who congregate at a location and perform a series of unrelated actions and disperse.
(India had one in mumbai ,read all abt it here , but the police took offense to anything organised with the word 'Mob' in its name(Gheun Tak!))

Beyond the idea of a Flash mob is , I guess , the non-idea of it

Much like - An experienced Zen master knows when the student has reached the verge of sudden enlightenment and is able to shock him or her into the satori experience with unexpected acts such as a blow with a stick or a loud yell.

Is that the road of the Dada-ist?
