Game research and art studio Studio Oleomingus’ Dhruv Jani lead a kaleidoscopic narrative design workshop, centered on the question: can interactive fiction operate as a powerful political tool? This workshop interrogated language, protest, bodies, and empathy in the games space. 

The workshop was structured into four exploratory parts:

  1. Introduction: Beliefs and practice
  2. Places, sites, and boundaries
  3. Bodies and identity
  4. Rituals and labor

Participants will leave with a storytelling prototype to develop into an analog or digital game.

After purchase, you'll get access to a recording of the the video and a transcript available in your account page.

Our Approach

Game-Making Practice

It's for everyone! We believe that game design and thinking is not limited to "the video game industry." It's a creative point of view that any discipline can use.

LEARN FROM Doing

Our workshops are focused on activities with a majority of time spent on making things.

this is only the start

You'll grow from here. We hope that this is a stepping stone for you to permanently work with the material of games.
