Talk To Me - Wave Farm (2025-Ongoing) is an experiment in serendipitous social interaction, mutual aid, community building, and the power of strangers to alter the ground on which we stand. Built on the Talk To Me micro telephone network, each conversation is an opportunity for two strangers to touch each others lives, however briefly. When activated, the pond-facing phone will call out to every person in the Talk To Me - Wave Farm community, all at once. You will speak with the first person to answer the call.

To improve society spend time with people you haven’t met. - John Cage

Talk To Me NYC (2022) was a network of five payphones that only called each other, placed on streets, one in each of NYC’s five boroughs. This serendipitous interaction machine ran for a little over a year and a half and created thousands of interactions and hundreds of meaningful moments between strangers. Every day New Yorkers would pick up the phone, and others would answer the call. Confusion was common, connection less so, but each call represented a moment in time in which two people were held in brief proximity. The forest-facing phone features an edited compilation of the audio that resulted.

Talk To Me - Wave Farm, is made possible, in part, by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature through a Support for Artists Grant, fiscally sponsored by Wave Farm.
