LARPers, Transmedia, and Wyrd Con

I’m a bit late in making the announcement, but I’m heading to Costa Mesa June 10-11 to check out Wyrd Con 2, a LARP (live-action role-play) convention.

I’ll be taking the plunge and running my first LARP experience (set in Runes of Gallidon, of course!), as well as speaking at a panel on the 11th about transmedia.

And as if that wasn’t enough, I’ll also have the pleasure of attending Wyrd Con with several members of the Transmedia L.A. Meetup.

If you’re at all interested in LARPing, storytelling, or improvisation, I encourage you to check out Wyrd Con. And if you’re interested in the Gallidon LARP, there are still characters available!

A History and Future of Collaborative Storytelling

This is my (un)scientific, (non-)comprehensive, and (not at all) objective overview of the rise of collaborative storytelling: how we (more or less) got here, and where we may (kinda sorta) be heading. No particular axe to grind or agenda to sell, just my observations after watching this space for a few years. Buckle up, this […]
