Grandomastery Random LOCATION Activity – Randonautica-Style Teleportation Storytelling for C1–C2+ Existential Fluency

The most mind-bending “where the hell am I?” exercise in Grandomastery: Google Maps drops you at a truly bizarre, randomly chosen real-world coordinate (an abandoned Soviet submarine base in Ukraine, a lonely vending machine in the middle of Hokkaido countryside, a neon-lit rooftop in Jakarta, a salt flat in Bolivia with a single tree). You have 8–12 minutes to deliver a completely convincing, deadpan spoken monologue (or written field report) that:

  • explains exactly why you, personally, are standing there right now,

  • makes the absurd location feel like the most logical place on Earth for you to be,

  • weaves in vivid sensory details and emotional authenticity,

  • and calmly addresses an imaginary skeptical audience demanding answers.

The result is a 2–4-minute performance that feels like Werner Herzog narrating a personal existential travel vlog.


Target Audience

  • C1–C2–C2+ (“C3”) learners & native speakers

  • Travel writers, location scouts, existential philosophers, C2 Proficiency Speaking candidates


Mode & Duration

Solo spoken “live report from nowhere” + optional written dispatch – 10–15 minutes per drop


Key Skills Developed (True C2+ Level)

  • Masterful location-based storytelling & narrative transportation – turning pure coordinates into deeply personal mythology

  • Advanced/proficient existential English – seamless use of speculative, counterfactual, and phenomenological registers

  • Randonautica-style ontological improvisation – inventing airtight personal causality for random quantum-like jumps

  • Sensory immersion & atmospheric precision – describing unseen places with cinematic, multi-sensory realism

  • Deadpan persuasive surrealism – maintaining total conviction while narrating the impossible

  • Audience-inclusive justification rhetoric – anticipating disbelief and neutralising it with charm and logic

  • Spontaneous world-building under geographical pressure – creating instant meaning from pure randomness


Core Theoretical Principles This Activity Is Built On

  1. Randonautica Mind-Matter Interaction – intentional randomness as a mirror for projecting personal meaning onto the world

  2. Defamiliarisation + Cognitive Estrangement – placing yourself in extreme unfamiliarity to see reality anew

  3. Narrative Identity via Place – we become who we are by the stories we tell about where we (suddenly) find ourselves


Used daily by top travel-literature authors, location-based storytellers, and C2 examiners as the fastest route to near-native spontaneous narrative power and unbreakable creative confidence.
