26 Friends

26 Friends is an immersive art experience. It is intended to literally change your life.

STEP 1: Live long enough to make 26 friends that live in their own place.

STEP 2: Make a map of a visit to all 26 friends, whereever they are around the world on a circuit that will bring you home at the end.

STEP 3: Pack a backpack or suitcase with everything you think you'd need for a full YEAR away from home.

STEP 4: Call or VideoCall each of the 26 friends and schedule a 2 week visit with them.  Tell them about 26 friends. Explain how this is supposed to change your life and that you both want their help, and that it'll be fun, mostly.

STEP 5: Start your voyage with Friend #1. Go live with them, not just at their house, but amongst them.  Eat the kinds of foods they eat. Sleep the hours they sleep. Make notes about what you like and didn't like for your own life, but do it for 2 weeks.

STEP 6: Thank your friend heartily, tell them that they've changed your life and ask for a ride to stop #2. 

STEP 7: REPEAT STEP 5,6 * 25 times.

STEP 8: Write a book about what you've learned. or draw a story. or make a movie or a painting...just let it change your life.
