Do you play games with your MEMORY? 

. . . Have you ever had the experience of being surprised by remembering something about your own life that you've forgotten?

. . . Have you visualized another's reported memory so viscerally you felt like you were there yourself?

. . . Are you ever conscious of "making a memory" while the experience is still happening... or forget the very thing you're doing while still in the act? 

. . . Do you love to revel in memories, curate them in your external environment, or feel haunted by their unwelcome recurrence?

. . . Have you ever tried to intentionally forget something? Did it work?

This month at Ludic Liberation Lab we will be playing with memory in some of its various forms โ€“ autobiographical, episodic, prospective, working.

The main course of the Lab will involve playing a virtual version of the table top indie game Fading Memories, developed by Italian game designer Matteo Menapace. Fading Memories is a cooperative storytelling game in which the players work together to share personal memories with each other, and prevent memory loss from becoming irreversible.

We'll also play some memory warm-up games and consider whether our relationship to memory can ever be truly liberating, or if memories always capture us in some way. 

Join us to play with MEMORY!
