Daniel Scott Snelson and I will be speaking remotely at DIGRA2025, Wednesday, July 2nd, about Soccerthon88, our artgame/documentary project in development. Abstract here.
I’m keeping as busy as I can as the world continues to burn, to the delight of the apocalyptic death cult that controls capital and is only willing to spend it on eternal war and conquest.
I’m in the last two weeks of an online class at the Brooklyn Institute of Social Research about architectural experiments, with the goal of understanding Manfredo Tafuri’s critiques of architectural avant gardes better. This is early research for an expansion of my “Arcology Mode” thesis writing into a book that would follow a “Dungeon Mode” book.
The class has been really informative so far, there’s been great background on early utopian thinkers and this week has been devoted to the context and architecture of Red Vienna.
Also doing some light carpentry work for household stuff, but it’s so hot now and I don’t have many tools so it’s slow going.
I can’t remember if I posted about it, but I took part in the DiscMaster game jam last month. It was a week long jam to make games using Archive.org’s enormous store of CD-ROM materials. Here’s the game I made: The Museum of Opportunity.
