    Knutepunkt 2013: Call for Poems

    Written by

    Knutepunkt 2013 is the next instance of the annual pan-nordic conference on nordic style larp called Knutepunkt. Their editorial team is looking for poems for this years edition of the Knutepunkt book:

    The editorial team is working with including different expressions of how larping can leave lasting impacts on individuals, and we are, therefore, encouraging you to send us your poems.

    We are looking for poems in Norwegian, Swedish, Danish, Finnish or English – and we are not going to translate or retell them in another language. We hope to get poems about larps and larping, poems that deal with feelings or topics that might’ve touched you during or after a larp, poems written as a part of a debriefing process, or poems written in, or to, a character – or something completely different. If this turns out to be a fruitful idea, and we get enough suitable submissions, we will include the poems in the Knutebook.

    If this sounds interesting, please contact us at kpbook13@gmail.com
    We’re looking forward to reading your artistic escapades!

    The Monitor Celestra

    Written by

    The Monitor Celestra is a nordic Larp inspired by the science fiction tv-series Battlestar Galactica.

    It will be played on three occasions in Gothenburg, Sweden during March 1-3, March 8-10 and March 15-17. The game run on March 8-10 will be in English aimed at international players and there is an option for a fourth game on March 22-24 if the other three games become full.

    The location of the game is the old Swedish destroyer Småland which will be dressed up as BSG-style spaceship with the help of set dressing, props and technical aids.

    The game will be pay and play, the organizers providing costumes and props that are not readily available for players such as uniforms. This means there are different price points for different characters, based on how costly the visual props are for that character class.

    Here is a video introduction from the production team:

    one of you who consider contributing to the program of Knutepunkt
    2013. Whether you are a newcomer or an old fart:

    Tell us about people you want to see on
    the program and bring us your ideas!

    The KP vision 2013 – Theme: Crossing Borders
    Knutepunkt 2013 will continue the tradition of Knutepunkt being the most important meeting place in Nordic larp. Larp is an expanding medium crossing borders between countries, subcultures , different media, genres and people.

    We will in particular prioritize:

    • Expanding the visibility of larp
    • Being a fertile space for new ideas and joint projects between people of different national and subcultural backgrounds
    • A high quality program
