Are you ready to give your brain muscles a workout? Come and learn how to create your own game. You’ll be guided through a series of creative exercises, from sketching to writing to game design. Drawing on your skills and hobbies, we’ll move at an intense and exhilarating pace. No gaming or design experience is required.

Shing Yin Khor is a multidisciplinary graphic novelist, analog game designer, and installation artist exploring mythic Americana and new human rituals, at the intersection of race, gender, immigrant stories, and queerness. They are the author of The American Dream? A Journey on Route 66, one of NPR’s Best Books of the Year in 2019, and The Legend of Auntie Po, a 2022 Eisner Award-winner and a National Book Award finalist. Their games and immersive installations, such as the live mail game Remember August, which won the 2022 Indiecade Tabletop Award, and the guerrilla art performance The Gentle Oraclebird, create delightful interruptions in everyday life.

I found out about Khor's work with their embroidery solo game A Mending (sold out, alas) and am still pining after the Gnome Divination Device. I can't guarantee I'll make it to this (I have a three-hour art workshop later that day), but perhaps this is of interest to some of y'all?

(Sorry I've been scarce lately; I have been buried in work.)
