Spit City (P&P RPG)
An experiential pen & paper role play game, Spit City is played with pen, paper, and dice. It was produced and presented in conjunction with transmediale festival, Berlin, in 2023. Spit City invites players to world a geography and their own in-game identity. The possibility of inhabiting one collective identity with several players is encouraged. The only physical remnant of a playthrough is a sketched map, which captures the players' decisions on what is traced and how it is recorded. The process assimilates the approach of feminist cartography, which is multidimensional, multiscalar, and anchored in the body. Spit City facilitates the emergence of a queer pleasure-positive ecology, other-than-human intimacies, and a carnal role play experience for 2 to 7 players.
