I'm doing visuals at the @nyugamecenter.bsky.social party at @wonderville.nyc! I'm excited to collab with @wendyleftmealone.bsky.social 7 years after we first worked together. We've both evolved as artists so much, and we're making a unified audiovisual experience together. I will try something new!

My work will also be featured at the Rode Hond Festival in Leuven, Belgium - an arts festival for families with children from 0 to 12 years old. The city theatre will become one big play zone with movement games for kids of all ages. This is my first time putting on an installation remotely!

I have several events to announce for the fall!

First up - I'm going to the Super FESTival by @thehandeyesociety.bsky.social in Toronto, Canada! Between will be exhibited at the Spooky Soiree, which will feature experimental games, alt-controllers, and a full immersive ghost-hunting quest.

I'm giving a short talk about my game practice at the WikiGameJam opening at Hex House tonight! My games aren't directly linked to Wikipedia, but I've fallen down many Wikipedia rabbit holes. I'm excited to speak among and meet other amazing game devs.

@laplayade.bsky.social released their interview of me from @amazefest.bsky.social last year! I do not speak French but the subtitles and questions do. I talk about my work, touch, dance, and expanded definitions of art.

Music by @littlescale.bsky.social - thanks for letting me use it!

Accessibility is so important for alt ctrl games! I designed my games to be playable by as many bodies as possible.

At Playtime, I was so happy to see them played by people of every age and size, as well as people in wheelchairs and with vision impairments.
