Description Having an intimate one-on-one conversation with someone of your own generation is not uncommon. Such encounters become exponentially rarer as the age gap widens. At a time when ageing and isolation are becoming more acute than ever before, this gem of a piece puts you face to face, in a safe and private space with an older perfect stranger and invites you to freely converse. You book individually, and walk alone through a portal, where you are met with a desk, a computer and a bespoke website that connects you to one of many remarkable, articulate seniors from around the country.
