DARE # 13 I dare you to save the world.
DARE # 12 I dare you to show up to an exhibition opening at a prominent art gallery with measuring tape, pencil and paper, in order to measure and document those measurements. If asked what you are doing, you must simply reply that you are "measuring for my show".
DARE # 11 I dare you to sell your soul on Ebay.
DARE # 10 I dare you to brush a stranger's teeth.
DARE # 9 I dare you to make a puppet with your hand (the kind where you make a fist and your middle thumb becomes the mouth and you draw the eyes on the side of your pointer finger) and go to a bar. Order a half pint with your hand, and drink it with your hand puppet. Complain (as your puppet) about what a hard day at work your puppet has had and how beer really helps things out.
DARE # 8 I dare you to enter the ATM section of a bank after hours and, in the open space, perform and document a two-minute dance piece, playing for the security camera as your audience. Try to get access to the tape afterwards by talking to security.
DARE # 7 I dare you to read and digest (through oral consumption) any reading material by Clement Greenberg. Consumption must be all in one sitting, and can be divided between dishes, if the reading is prepared as parts of a meal.
DARE # 6 I dare you to to spend a continuous 24-hour period drawing. Take a lot of photographs because there is one condition - at the end of the 24 hours you must end up with nothing... No drawing, no object, no trace... Nothing!
DARE # 5 I dare you to make me laugh.
DARE # 4 I dare you to make your earliest childhood memory a tangible experience for another.
DARE # 3 I dare you to take all the kitchen knives you can find, (buy them from a dollar/pound shop if you must) and hand them out to random people on the street. Don't say a word, just stand there, handing out large, sharp knives.
DARE #2 I dare you to write an anonymous seven-sentence confession and print it onto seven posters and put those posters up at seven bus stops and leave space on the posters for seven comments and then document the results after seven days.
DARE # 1 I dare you to write a submission in sonnet form (or with some kind of rhyming scheme so that's easily sung). Next, hire a singing telegram dressed as clown (or do it yourself) to show up at a gallery, or a gallery director's home to sing your text and drop off your submission.
