Surrealist game
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In surrealism, play, including surrealist games, is of great significance not only as a form of recreation but as a method of investigation. Old games such as exquisite corpse, consequences, Conditionals, Question and Answer, and newer ones such as Time Travelers' Potlatch, What is Wrong With This Picture? and Parallel Collage have played a critical role.
The procedure of such games is intended to cut away the constraints of rationalism and allow concepts to develop more freely and in a more random manner. The aim is to break traditional thought patterns and create a more original endpoint. [1]
