eveghost 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧<p>Realizing that I did the <a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/introduction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>introduction</span></a> informally, so let's try again:</p><p>I'm a nonbinary <a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/transmedia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>transmedia</span></a> storyteller, musician, writer, web designer and PhD researcher. </p><p>My passion project is the <a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/ARG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ARG</span></a> - <a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/elit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>elit</span></a> - <a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/InteractiveFiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>InteractiveFiction</span></a> crossover work Under the Surface, which utilizes what appears to be a musician's webpage to tell a story through a variety of media. It includes opportunities to dig deeper and exhume additional layers of content both by snooping around and by solving puzzles and explores <a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/mentalhealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mentalhealth</span></a> themes in a sensitive manner. You'll find it at <a href="https://www.axel-lunden.com" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">axel-lunden.com</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p>I also curate <a href="https://www.queer-immersives.info" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">queer-immersives.info</span><span class="invisible"></span></a>, which catalogues <a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/unfiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>unfiction</span></a>, alternate reality games, <a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/VisualNovels" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VisualNovels</span></a> and electronic literature by queer creators.</p><p>My PhD research is on mental health and tech policy and I'm an American based in Oslo, Norway. I may occasionally post in a Scandinavian language. You are forewarned.</p><p>I really love to meet other transmedia creators as well as writers, <a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/gamedev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gamedev</span></a> and <a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/NarrativeDesign" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NarrativeDesign</span></a> folk here!</p>
eveghost 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧<p>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 <a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/liminality" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>liminality</span></a> has become in populat culture by expanding on it in their analysis here:<br><a href="https://tinyurl.com/92h59xh7" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">tinyurl.com/92h59xh7</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p>Also, if you're wondering how a project can be an <a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/ARG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ARG</span></a> (alternate reality game), <a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/elit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>elit</span></a>, <a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/unfiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>unfiction</span></a> and <a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/interactivefiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>interactivefiction</span></a> all at the same time, this gives a fairly good explanation of why all 4 genres are a good fit. </p><p>Anyway, I love Wren's synopsis, give it a look if you're at all curious about what I'm up to!</p>
Iris Jade Grimm<p>Hi! I'm Iris, and I'm a <a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/YAFantasy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>YAFantasy</span></a> writer and graphic &amp; <a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/NarrativeDesigner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NarrativeDesigner</span></a>. </p><p>My current personal project is Eternal Yard Sale/City of Eminence which features Myria "World's Okayest Space Witch" Klepzig trying to cope with the loss of her world and building found family, which - as a trans woman - resonates with me for some strange reason! 💚​</p><p>My project also deals heavily in surrealist humor and the reexamination of nostalgia.
