Want a date with me?

How do we interpret the word ‘Date’? Would context change the content of a conversation? Partly as a social experiment, I asked my colleagues to come to my home, dressing as if they were going on a first date, and have a conversation with me. Each date was documented by still pictures taken at one-minute interval.
