With the focus on them, being genuinely interested in what they’re saying, with a little humor. Low pressure questions- hobbies, something you’re working on, things to do, favorite restaurants or something. Don’t try too hard to force things if they‘re not moving along or they’re not receptive. You don’t want this to feel like a forced work icebreaker thing.

I love to ask what people are currently “in to” - meaning current inspirations, fixations, interests, etc. 1. It’s subtle but revealing- I now know what you are interested in and get a hint at how you view life (ex. some interests can be perceived as narcissistic/surface level vs. thoughtful/curious) *Granted, not eveyone will have a good answer (or may not even be able to answer) and that will tell you all you need to know!! 2. Naturally we love to talk about ourselves and our passions so it will certainly keep the conversation going. Extra points for asking questions about what they say (maybe you’re interested, maybe you’re not- but at least it’s not awkward anymore)

I will always have an interest in the media people often deemed too crude to the senses or unconventional to marketability. Sometimes art is an exercise in vision not necessarily practicality or approval
