# The Wheel of Fortune
|
|
|
|
|
## a tool for self-inquiry
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
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 a daily, weekly or any frequency that suits you best. Beware, the game can be played individually or in small groups.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The main components of the game are a virtual spinning wheel, accessible via this link here https://issue.xpub.nl/20/wheel, a deck of 20 photo slides, a notebook, and a pen(cil) to store the potential insights you might find for yourself.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To start the exercise, you need to visit the website on their devices 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 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 "?".
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
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.
