The sarcastic newscast “New Report” by K8 Hardy and Wynne Greenwood makes use of this mixed media, as does “One of Us” by Ulrike Muller, which features only a red curtain and headphones. Moyra Davey’s “50 Minutes” is a profound contribution to the broader notion of the mundane that runs through the show.
