Mental training - empathic link

This is a little experiment with idea cards. The point is to establish a connection between 2 or more people.


Requires 3 people and some idea cards.
A - "book"
B - reader
C - assistant

A and B are sitting near eachother and looking in the opposite directions. A is given a card. Her goal is to explain which card it is to B without using articulated sentences - the simpler, the better. Questions are not allowed. Saying the word is not allowed.
Success is measured by how few words it takes to convey a meaning.

C hands the cards and checks whether a card has been recognized. Recognizing a card is considered to be when B confidently says the name of the symbol.
For the sake of clarity - A and B may know all existing cards before the assignment.
A and B should not think too much about C, but rather focus on each other.
