How can democratic processes, political structures and collective decision-making become meaningful parts of a larp experience?

Join us for the next Larpocracy Seminar, featuring award-winning game designer and Chaos League co-founder Alessandro Giovannucci.

Drawing on theoretical perspectives on participation, agency, and decision-making, along with case studies from Bunker 101, this seminar explores how democratic structures can be embedded in larp design—not merely as narrative themes, but as active mechanics that shape player experiences.

The presentation will also examine strategies for creating accessible and engaging deliberative experiences, regardless of participants' backgrounds or prior experience.
