World’s Biggest Eye Contact Experiment 2017: Oakland, CA

Saturday, September 23, 2017 at 2 PM - 4 PM

Grand Lake Farmers Market
Grand and Lake Park Ave,
Oakland, California 94610


Let's share a minute of eye contact with strangers in public to rebuild our sense of shared humanity in Oakland!

The idea is simple:
1. We will have clear signs that say “Where has the human connection gone? Share 1 minute of eye contact to find out…” (Watch the video pinned to the top of this page to see how it happened last year).
2. Then we sit down on picnic rugs with 2x cushions each and invite members of the public to come and share a moment of eye contact with you.
3. Allow yourself to be seen & calmly look into the eyes of the other person in front of you. When you create a safe environment of acceptance and love, the other will feel connected.
4. Officially Register
It’s important you register your participation for official event updates and behind the scenes info → http://bit.ly/OfficialEyeContact2017
5. On the Day
We enjoy the afternoon together then upload the video to The Liberators in Perth, Australia where video editors from around the globe will compile the video footage to create an amazing video to be shared all over the world!

Where to meet?
We will meet on Saturday the 23rd of September at 4pm at @ Grand Lake Farmer’s Market, corner of Grand Ave. and Lake Park Ave. in the concrete circle (where the musicians play beforehand)
