Actual Plays, Interviews, and more
This week’s episode of solo is a super short one!
We’re playing a single person graffiti RPG.
It asks you to put yourself in the role of a pilot, likely about to die in battle, writing your final goodbye on the inside of your giant robots cockpit, like all those that came before you.
And you do this by writing poetry on a building.
Below is a photo of our wall poem, and a full copy of the game.
Play it, if you feel safe enough.
In following with the example set by the festival. I would like to acknowledge the Awabakal and Worimi peoples, who are the traditional custodians of the land the festival was held on, and that this podcast was made on. I pay respect to their elders past and present as well as to any listeners with a connection to the world’s oldest continuing culture. I would also like to acknowledge that sovereignty was never ceded and this always was and always will be Aboriginal land.

National Young Writers Festival happens every year in early October, in Newcastle Australia. It is part of a collection of arts festivals that happen as part of This Is Not Art festival. It’s free to attended, and offers workshops, panels, comedy sets, poetry readings, and more!
It’s made up of artists from all over the place, getting together, and sharing their creative energy, insight, and skills with each other and the public.
I want more game makers to attend, and more importantly; I want them on panels!
Let us see if I can convince you, while I pay homage to The Mixed Six. Continue reading “NYWF Needs More Game Makers!”

The first in our series of content recorded for, about, and at the National Young Writers Festival here in Newcastle. This is an Actual Play of hacked version of Ash McAllan’s game Oracle.
Elyce Phillips, Soo-Min Shim, and Chloe Alison Escott, join Ray on a journey to find Arts Funding. Recorded in front of a live audience, it was a hilarious adventure as well as being full of many firsts. We hope you enjoy.
[Note: we did our best with the editing of the sound quality, but it was a noisy space.]
This week we have a special interview with my partner, and collaborator Rae.
We’ve been working on a poetry board game together. In it you write poems about the rooms of a house you imagine yourself to be exploring. There are prompts about the contents of the house to help you, and at the end you do a reading of your house poems.
It’s called Architype and we thought interviewing Rae would be a fun way to introduce it to you. Continue reading “Interview with Rae White”
