In daily life, I perform in a couple ways. My job requires me to interact and be friendly to a lot of different people, so even when I'm annoyed or uncomfortable I have to pretend not to be. Also, since my job requires me to give people advice, I have to pretend to be knowledgeable even in subjects that I have no idea about.
A lot of society is constructed because it is based on the media and social networking, both of which are used to make people and things appear to be better or worse than the really are. Even the idea of my "social environment" is constructed because I have many ways to have "friends" who I can talk to, like on social networking sites, but we truly aren't friends because outside of the internet we never interact.
My physical environment was built by humans, so I guess that is the way that it is constructed. The layout of the rooms was purposefully planned by people, and the decorations and layout of the furniture was purposefully constructed by me.
I am pretty cynical, so I view pretty much every thing as constructed or fabricated, even people's interactions with me or information. There are only a couple things I think are real, and that is my own thoughts, and my religion.
I think a narrative tableau could show someone who is trying to pull off a prank getting caught.
I think it would be kind of neat to recreate images (probably really weird ones) with dolls. Like the image we looked at in class that was so strange, with the girl laying face down in the grass. Using a Barbie for that could be cool.
