    Jaakko Stenros: Retrospective: Documentation, Community, and Research

    Written by

    In the Knutepunkt scene there is a history of larp designers and producers giving retrospectives, where they discuss all of their work. In this talk, here presented in two parts, Dr Stenros takes that format and expands it to other aspects of the community. He gives an overview of the work he has done around larp relating to documentation, community, and research during the past 25 years.

    Elements of Larp Design

    Written by

    What is it larp designers actually design? How do players actually respond to design decisions? Are there any truths that apply to all the different kinds of larp design? Eirik Fatland presents his unpublished yet influential mid-level theory of what the big picture in larp design looks like. An updated re-run of a classic KP presentation.

    Bringing Larp to the Larpers

    Written by

    Katrine Wind has worked with local producers to re-run her larp Daemon in different countries. The reasons to do so are many! Sustainability, accessibility, and co-creation. In this presentation she shares her experiences from the US, UK, Denmark, and Belgium together with some of the collaborators: Sandy Bailly who is the producer of the Belgian run and Mo Holkar who is the safety person. Mo has also brought larps abroad from his local scene, and provides insights from those experiences. The aim is to hopefully inspire people to bring larps to other communities. It is easier than you think, and we should re-run more larps!
