EXPERIMENT 1: LUCK
For our inaugural investigation, Rare Knowledge is currently pursuing the following question:
Can you make yourself luckier?
Using traditionally regarded sources of good luck (including both charms and rituals), we will test four (4) different practices for one week each in an attempt to determine the best possible way to induce luck.
In overview, the following will take place: Participants will fill out a brief questionnaire asking them about their luck, as they perceive it. They will then begin a week-long test of a specific luck-inducer from a provided LUCK KIT. They will repeat this process for the next three luck-inducers, recording their observations at the end of each week in a provided PROCEDURES & FINDINGS booklet. They will then complete a final questionnaire about the experience and their opinions on luck. When finished, the PROCEDURES & FINDINGS booklet will be returned to the Rare Knowledge team for tabulation of findings.
