Welcome, participants, to the Voight Kampff Experiment; a collaborative cybernetical experience which aims to make it slightly less complicated for all members of the present group to endure and adore each other.
3 – 9 players | 1 – 2 hours
Everyone is a domain expert, preferably in fancy attire and a hat.
Pick three interview questions from your domain, you may substitute one question with one of your own.
Try to choose questions you cannot predict the answers to.
Note that you will be asking, not answering, questions from your domain.
Interpret or phrase the questions however you desire; the final semantic authority is entirely yours, but try to be consistent in every interview.
Gather data by individually interviewing each other player, anonymize the answers, identify common trends or talking points and concludingly present your findings to the group.
Approach your task with scientific rigour; every honest answer is valid, never judge or ridicule.
Whatever another players tells during an interview you is not necessarily what they would share with the whole group – only implicate others (directly or via association) during your final presentation with their explicit consent.
A soft time limit of 5 – 10 minutes per interview is recommended, switch roles or partners before conducting the next round.
In case of an uneven player number, the lone player roams the lab and makes notes of thoughts, ideas or anonymized quotes on a shared pad, which changes hands every round.
