@PaceSmith @terrycavanagh wonderful to see, thank you!
Here's a little booklet about public play, which @UltraCobalt wrote as part of her @PlayableCity residency in Tokyo! "Nine Questions About Play in Particular Places": britishcouncil.jp/sites/default/…
@UCA_GD Hi there, it's at the printers so will be coming soon, we promise!
A bit of info about the booklet of awkward games we made for @SciGalleryDub's "Intimacy" exhibition - mathesonmarcault.com/index.php/2018… - if you're in Dublin, do have a look!
Sophie's back off to Japan for the second part of her @PlayableCity residency - she's written here mathesonmarcault.com/index.php/2018… about what she's up to there.
This summer we made a game for an amazing ruined castle, as part of Goodrich Castle's on-site interpretation - more info here: mathesonmarcault.com/index.php/2018…
This covers the first of the rooms from the Game Changers exhibition at Somerset House in 2017 (with the next two rooms, Chess and Mazes, still to come).
Hey here's an essay we wrote about the weird long evolution of billiards! medium.com/@mathesonmarca…
3 HOURS LEFT kickstarter.com/projects/13341…
They also have Agnes Varda with cat and a great zine library, and a bunch of interesting-looking talks and panels.
We’re at @BFI today running Art Deck as part of @CodeLiberation’s area of Woman with a Movie Camera summit. Come play if you’re in the correct geographical location!
Kickstarter update: IT'S TIME FOR SOME STRETCH GOALS! kickstarter.com/projects/13341… Two new ways to play the game, plus extra cards from some of our favourite wordsy/picturesy/gamesy designers and artists @emshort @leighalexander @pippinbarr and @vivschwarz
Oh wow, thanks so much to everyone who's backed Art Deck so far - not quite a day in and we're 2/3 of the way there(!!!) kickstarter.com/projects/13341… This weekend we'll be at @feralvector, and at #ukge on stall 2-B21, so do pop by to say hello and have a draw if you're around...
EXCITING NEWS: we've just launched a Kickstarter for our collaborative drawing game Art Deck. It's fast and fun and silly and gets you drawing with your friends kickstarter.com/projects/13341…
...but ALSO this weekend we're in Frankfurt for #playsonicfestival where we'll be running a new outdoor music game, Inverted Operas, that we've been working on with @DavidHelbich and Rosario Talevi. Happy to report that the weather in Frankfurt is: extremely nice.
Okay so we're mostly talking about Art Deck at the moment, because our Kickstarter launches THIS COMING WEDNESDAY (and oh, we're running it at @feralvector a couple of days later...)
