Conversation Hacks for Revelatory Relating

A Five Course Meal of Questions ~ Wandering Whimsy, Governor’s Island

I love mind-blowing conversations. I love deep human connection.

I hate small talk.

So I designed the Conversation Game.

Here’s a preview:

• What’s one way in which your conception of reality has changed in the last year? The last decade?
• What were you like at age eight and how did that inform you career path?
• What question about reality do you find yourself pondering most often?
• What do you like to be appreciated for?
• What’s the most fascinating thing you’ve learned in the last month?
• Tell me about the last time you did something brave.
• Did learning about science ever destroy the magic of something for you?
• What law would you break if you knew you wouldn't get caught?
• What life are you not living because you are living this one instead?
• Who might you have been in a past life?
• How have you grown up in the last year?
• What do you wish you could believe in?
• Fear is false evidence appearing real. What scares you?
• Why do you think beauty is important?
• When do you feel like a kid?
• When do you feel like an adult?
• What is your most repulsive habit?
• Tell me a secret about the universe.

*This deck was conceived as part of an interactive performance installation I created on Governor’s Island called Wandering Whimsy. Participants were paired at random to partake in a Five Course Meal of Questions. It was a beautiful experiment in spontaneous connections between strangers.
