This branch is focused on exploring the art and craft of larp design. We’re looking for program elements that cover a wide range of design topics, such as world-building, character creation, mechanics, player agency, and player safety. Whether you’re an experienced designer or just starting out, we welcome proposals that share your knowledge and insights into the design process and help us grow this arborescent world of play.
