Description:
In our first roundtable, we combine our five first speakers together in a panel to get to know more about them and their take on transformative play. After hearing:
- Whitney S. Beltrán talk about archetype work in character creation for player catharsis,
- Johanna Koljonen talk about Nordic larp as a tool for social change,
- Diana J. Leonard talk about role-playing marginalized characters,
- Jaakko Stenros talk about the evolution of play and dark play, and
- Allen Turner talk about the importance of the Trickster archetype...
...we are now bringing them together to explore transformative play in the past, present, and future.
