            Thank you, Myozan. My laptop is still unreliable so I am going to work along with the recordings for now.

                  The 20 movements I've broken down Opening the Bowls into:

                  Oryoki 1: Opening the Bowls
                  Chants X 2
                  To Open
                  1: Spread left and right out
                  2: Drying cloth: Z and flip
                  3: Clockwise utensils (flipped cloth; bag; waterboard)/ right hand top) opening to
                  left
                  4: Open napkin and on knees
                  5: Open front flap; then back (make star shape)
                  6: Right side star; left side star
                  7: Open Hattan; place under bowls; bowls to left
                  8: Dish under Buddha bowl (use thumbs)
                  9: Two little bowls on right
                  10: Bowl on top
                  11: Last (number 2) bowl in middle
                  12: Drying cloth up with right hand
                  13: Left hand: take up utensils
                  14: Replace drying cloth with right
                  15: Work out tools; make Z (setu on left; spoon middle; chopsticks right)
                  16: Fold Z with left hand
                  17: Chopsticks out (points in middle; handle left)
                  18: Spoon out (handle left; bowl open; closest to body)
                  19: Setsu out (flip between bowls 2 and 3)
                  20: Put utensil cover, opening to right; sandwiched in waterboard and drying
                  cloth)

                  ... and the bowls are open
