Games on the streets of Berlin are back

Introduction and Social

Some news from Berlin - not many of us are right now here, but this is a chance for some of the games to be played maybe? The city decided to designate some of the streets and close them down to traffic during Sundays and public holidays in the next months, starting on the 31st of May. This is to extend the amount of play space for the citizens as playgrounds are easily overcrowded. If we got enough interest, we could possibly try out some of your games in the public space using this opportunity :wink:

Hello,

I will be in Berlin from 16-23 of June and would love to play this game whilst there. Sunday 21 in Neukolln? Tempelhofer Feld?

Philosophy here: The Glass Bead Game: A Transmedia Co-Creative Embodied Meaning-Making Game - Google Docs

Also eager to meet up with anyone from the community who is in Berlin.

To you,

LCC

Hey, I think I would be up for that! we have also @jakob.wollekob and @Sa.rah in town, and a few other peeps. Would you be interested in combining this experience with our solstice party on the 20th maybe instead? The rules are now waaay more relaxed around being in public, and it would be a nice little session to offer maybe - if there could be a nice way to blend its “real life” and online presentation. Let me know, if not, we can meet on Sunday as well :slight_smile:

Hello Natalia,

Great! We play the game every week on Zoom on Mondays, and now we finally have a chance to play outside so I’m going to jump on that and suggest we meet on Sunday. How about afternoon, maybe 4pm?

Sounds great! I am in. Saturday or sunday both are fine for me!

@AGEID - I’m running an event on that Sunday with my collective as part of Fete de la Musique, in Schillerkiez, we start at 3 - would you imagine maybe running the game at the end of the parade, at 7PM on Hermannplatz?
