THE ENDSF a n t a s y Catalogue
◊ ◊
I am researching various aspects of individual fantasies and their connection to the collective
fantasy world.
◊ ◊
Interviews about the secret world of fantasies
◊ ◊
These interviews are part of a process aimed at discovering the hidden motivat-ing factors which influence, shape and direct people’s lives.
The format consists of a two hour skype audio interview (without video).I want to generate a chain of interviews. I will interview ten people, who will
then interview another ten, and so on.

Do you have fantasies associated with violence/fear/death?Describe one that often appears or appeared in your mind?When does it appear?How long does it last?
Describe a sexual fantasy that you have and that you haven’t realized.
Did you realize any of your fantasies?Which fantasy?
What prevents you from fulfilling a fantasy?
Have you had a fantasy that was close to fulfillment, but reality prevailed and the fantasy was never realized?What happened as a result?
What is your definition of fantasy?
On average, how many hours daily do you spend in the realm of fantasy?
