Designing for Wise Conversation: Quiri, Depolarization & Curiosity-Driven Dialogue - Loisel & Victor

In this Project Onboarding conversation for Coherence 2025, Loisel Soleil (founder of Quiri) joins Victor Vorski (The Gathering) to explore how digital design can foster meaningful, wise, and depolarized conversations. Quiri is a new communication platform built with intention: to create small, intimate rooms focused on thoughtful questions, reflective dialogue, and trust-based connection.Together, Loisel and Victor discuss the design philosophies behind Quiri, the nuances of curiosity-centered communication, and how technology can support rather than diminish the art of human conversation. Loisel shares her journey as a UX designer co-building the app with her husband in Flutter, as well as her broader work with local community projects like Village Toronto and Fractal Toronto.Key topics explored:🔹 Quiri’s approach to progressive conversation: small rooms, rewarding curiosity and questions, and slow thinking🔹 Why focusing on questions (not answers) leads to deeper, more connected dialogue🔹 Conversation as design: how to create containers that reward reflection and curiosity🔹 Exploring relevance realization and wisdom through the lens of John Vervaeke’s work🔹 Using AI to support synthesis and insight — without replacing human nuance🔹 Building feedback loops between meaningful dialogue and collaborative action🔹 How Coherence can act as a gentle onboarding ramp into collaborative ecosystems🔹 Finding aligned builders: Loisel’s invitation for Flutter devs and mission-driven UX collaborators🔹 Local regeneration meets global coherence: reflections from Village Toronto and beyond✨ For conversational designers, UX researchers, and cultural technologists — this is a fresh take on how we design for wiser, more humane digital dialogue.🔹 Coherence 2025: https://coherence.tv/🔹 Loisel Soleil: https://www.linkedin.com/in/loisel-soleil/🔹 Quiri: https://www.quiri.io/🔹 Victor Vorski: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vvorski/
