A commercial experiment, wherein I try to turn artworks in the public domain into wearable brooches and enamel pins and then sell them. It’s going reasonably well considering I suck at Instagram and my hashtag game is weak.
As if I didn’t have enough going on, I’ve started doing Crafts. Sewing, painting, sculpting… it’s all happening. I’m primarily making face masks (that actually fit and don’t fog up glasses) for friends and other associated miscreants at the moment but I may eventually start selling my esoteric wares. Stayed tuned to find out.
This is not a conference but a weekend of hanging out with gamesy folks in a converted church. Late in 2019 I was feeling sad about the lack of opportunities to just hang out with large groups of friends, and how we’re always trying to cram in conversation time at other events. So I thought ‘why not make an event just about hanging out?’ Originally scheduled for Halloween 2020 but Halloween 2021 is looking promising! I have even booked a petting zoo.
A free afternoon of talks on games & literature that I co-organised, held at the British Library on in March 2017 as part of the London Games Festival Fringe. We then did it again in 2019!
I’m a member of this cool gang for lady game-makers of all skill ranges, and attend most of its events. These events are mainly brunch-related, and we sometimes do mini-jams in between rounds of tea and chips where we try new mediums.
Mapping various game-related gangs, collectives, and meet-ups around the world to help people find groups near them. I’m currently building the database to power it.
