@thegilded – yeah, I really shouldn’t speak too broadly on ARGs tbh, I had *very* in depth experience with The Beast and then only observed the others – the performative roles in The Beast didn’t ask us to play characters, though, that’s the difference, same as with Tension – we were performing, but (many of us) were ourselves, just in…[Read more]

@taysavestheday – Actually, historically speaking immersive theatre in Los Angeles has differed significantly from examples in other places, so I could be speaking way out of turn from what is the norm there. But if you look at examples going all the way back to Dionysis in 69 or even more recently Adriene Howells, the goal has never been to ask…[Read more]

@addisonborn – is that something you find lacking in your new married life? 😉

@mike – I did, it’s called being married to me, and its sole audience member tried *really* hard to permanently escape it last fall. 😉

I think the immersive I’m working on for the Edinburgh Fringe has greater artistic merits.

Maybe in-person events/occurances? Or, based on “just friends” and “relationships” is it something to do with personals?

And yeah, the witch hunt stuff from Tension was *not* good.

You know, play however you want obviously, but I’m not a big fan of playing “characters” in any sense, and the spirit of ARGs (at least in the before times) was not to have players be characters but to be themselves. It’s not LARPing. And…honestly, if we’re not all on board with the same social contract of play it leads to confusion and worse.…[Read more]

I am planning on making a Lust timeline on the same new site as the Tension one – I had to upgrade that in order to hold all the files/documentation, and the upgrade came with 4 more timelines, so I figure it’s something I’ll start really working on once the semester is over. I don’t know if that will be useful for anyone but that kind of digital…[Read more]

@thegilded – well that’s a relief because you had me questioning my ability to understand your jokes for the last 45 minutes.

Not sure anymore if this is a present for @mike or @kasch…

Sorry Sean, didn’t mean to repeat you. 🙂

We know it’s “The OSDM presents…” and the OSDM is carried over from Tension. We also know from an interview, article, or podcast (I can’t remember which, but it may have been Bryan’s) that future installments would take place in the same universe though would be self-contained, at least that was my understanding.

I hadn’t noticed this until right now.

ETA: OK, I’m having difficulties with the forum’s “reply” function so just ignore this post. This was in response to something Chelsea said way up-thread.

I hadn’t noticed this until right now.

And here I was thinking that “Punching Noah” might have just become my new #1 goal, surpassing “Punching Nazis.”

Also note the wristwatch he’s wearing on the home page – very clearly showing us something.

I noticed that and also that IX, XI, and XII.
