Worldglimpsing: Roleplay and the Design of Alternate Realities
From 10:00 to 17:00 from 13 December 2026 until 19 September 2027
Exhibition
When we pretend, anything is possible. The exhibition Worldglimpsing explores the magic of roleplay, gaming as a contemporary design practice, and the creation of different versions of ourselves.
Worldglimpsing
The digital games in Worldglimpsing invite visitors to experience first-hand how ‘worlding’ and roleplay can serve as testing grounds for alternative versions of our identities, living environments, and even society as a whole.
