“Shimmering Land”

a short role play inspired by an exhibition of Natalia Grezina and Anton Yermolov in the Chrysalid Gallery in Rotterdam. In this play, participants will play 7 objects from the collection of Scythian gold being transported inside a crate in a vehicle. They don’t know their destination, yet as rare objects which belonged to Scythian kings and noble people, they have some ancient powers to influence their journey.

25 and 26 of August. More info and reservations are here. 

“The Last Submarine” we’re designing together with Sophie Allerding.

It is a climate fiction role-play about water scarcity that will take place in See Lab in The Hague. The story is taking place in a speculative future in which sea levels have risen, the land is long gone and humans are living in floating cities. You will play a submarine crew sent on a mission with the last resources to find a new source of fresh water and hopefully save the future of humanity.

10 and 16 of September More info and reservations are here.

“Games as/in art practice”

A one-day workshop on analog game design I’m facilitating at Iii space in The Hague on the 23rd of September.

A re-run of the role play about the influence of artificial intelligence on the life of the community in a shared household in a very near speculative future. Also at Iii space in The Hague.
