Worked on a similar example in catering, where it was just too difficult for a group of students to see the fine detail of food prep. Also to prepare students for Heath and Safety aspects of laboratory work. In the latter case the students *had* to watch the videos before entering the lab.

Rather like the idea that we make it up as we go along, via language games (Wittgenstein) or ad-hoc performance (Butler) and that most of our 'depth' is post-hoc rationalisation to delude unto imagining we are, er, rational....
