Coincidence

Coincidence: A remarkable concurrence of two of more incidents that have no obvious causal connection.

My interest and intrigue into coincidences has grown from my research into the concept of chance. People explain coincidences in a range of ways from supernatural explanations such as a sign from god, to them just being part of the way the world works in terms of probability. One thing is for certain, that people have an inherent interest in coincidences. When two seemingly unrelated events or happenings coincide a sense of wonder is often created, people look at the world differently. When a coincidence occurs often our sense of what is rationally possible is changed for a brief moment. I have created a questionnaire to gather stories of coincidence as well as peoples personal views in order to widen my understanding of the subject in relation to other peoples experiences.
