#liminality

0 posts0 participants0 posts today

Back here after remembering every other social media experience but masto and tumblr makes me mad on purpose.

So...reintroduction. I'm an empath and professional conversation-haver and oddly-shaped puzzle piece stuck awkwardly in tech, looking for something...else.

I so habitually unknot weird problems that I have a crochet hook on my keys.

I also walk a lot, take a lot of pictures, and generally make stuff.

Not so long ago Wren Rainer Dalton of Univerity of Wisconsin at Madison's Serious Play collective wrote this excellent blog on my project Under the Surface and uses it to explain how limiting the use of the term #liminality has become in populat culture by expanding on it in their analysis here:

Also, if you're wondering how a project can be an #ARG (alternate reality game), #elit, #unfiction and #interactivefiction all at the same time, this gives a fairly good explanation of why all 4 genres are a good fit.

Anyway, I love Wren's synopsis, give it a look if you're at all curious about what I'm up to!

The UWM Digital Cultures Collaboratory · Ludic Reviews : Under the SurfaceThere’s this brilliant alternate reality game (ARG) on the scene that’s drawing on the traditions of e-literature and narratively inclined Indie games called Under the Surface.
