Meeting Larp for the First Time in Lebanon
Written by
Norwegian larp organization Fantasiforbundet are doing a project in Palestinian refugee camp Rashedie in Lebanon making larp for children.
Here are the words of Jacob, exiled Palestinian living in the refugee camp, talking about his first meeting with larp:
Hi my name is Jacob in ordinary life, but when I play larp game I become another person. Perhaps you ask yourself why I say this? I have learned that human characters has a lot of different faces, and that we though larp can act spontaneously and “sail” between character even if we are not professional actors or have a strong memory to remember many long texts.

Play: The Soul of Knutepunkt by Markus Montola & Jaakko Stenros
Written by
Larp scholars Markus Montola & Jaakko Stenros have written a text about their view on the spirit of the Knutepunkt larp conference. Here is a short excerpt:
Knutepunkt is a playful space.
It is a summer camp, a student club, and a rock
