|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>The Wheel of Fortune (not to be mistaken with the tarot card) is a
|
|
|
|
|
|
tool for self-inquiry that you, dear reader, can engage in daily, weekly
|
|
|
|
|
|
or at any frequency that suits you best. Beware: the game can be played
|
|
|
|
|
|
individually or in small groups.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>The main components of the game are a virtual spinning wheel,
|
|
|
|
|
|
accessible at issue.xpub.nl/20/wheel , a deck of twenty photo slides, a
|
|
|
|
|
|
notebook, and a pen(cil) to store the potential insights you might find
|
|
|
|
|
|
for yourself.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>To start the exercise, you need to visit the website and spin the
|
|
|
|
|
|
virtual wheel. The Wheel of Fortune spins for quite some time, and then
|
|
|
|
|
|
it gives you a random question. Take these questions as an invitation to
|
|
|
|
|
|
have an explorative conversation with yourself. The list of 404
|
|
|
|
|
|
questions is carefully collected, modified (where needed) and presented
|
|
|
|
|
|
to you through a random web generator. Psychotherapists, philosophers,
|
|
|
|
|
|
writers, and students from XPUB 2023 are among the authors of this long
|
|
|
|
|
|
list of sentences ending with “?”.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Another collection that can help you delve deeper into your inner
|
|
|
|
|
|
world is a deck of photo slides. Hopefully, these captured memories of
|
|
|
|
|
|
other people, paired with a random question on the screen, would evoke
|
|
|
|
|
|
new emotions or prompt you to imagine possible futures.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>The use of collective resources in this piece highlights the power of
|
|
|
|
|
|
collaboration in creating works that encourage people to engage in
|
|
|
|
|
|
self-reflection and introspection. As such, it may contribute to any art
|
|
|
|
|
|
publication exploring the human experience.</p>
