Join us at Frédéric Back to play with glowing orbs at dusk.

We'll paint with light above 40 million tonnes of transforming material, ritual shifting into experimental play.

I was hoping it wouldn't come to this, but here we are. I'm making a Montreal version of LoserLane.

If you want to contribute a building, I made a tool for you! omarieclaire.github.io/loserlanemon...

Has anyone found solutions for surviving social noise?

I'm talking about art openings or restaurants, spaces with many voices running at full volume and bouncing off the reflective walls like an autitory torture trampoline

Earplugs don't cut it, they mute everyone equally

What's your fav voice transcription software/service?

considerations: privacy policy (do they have one? Are they selling data?) price (I love a flat rate over a subscription), live transcription (nice!) english and french language support

I've been taking my morning coffee outside. Snowpants on, perched on a broken plastic adirondack chair for a few minutes.

I get this feeling that I've missed for years. It was one of the hardest things about quitting smoking, years ago. Spending time alone with the morning, every morning.

Are you a new event organizer and want to do something for Toronto Games Week 2025?

We welcome all kinds of events related to play. Maybe you want to host an underwater scuba arcade? Maybe you want to organize tiny immersive theatre performances on the TTC?

Last week I made a game about how scary it is to bike without bike lanes. Then on Saturday, with the unbelievable irony of life, I was biking on a street without a bike lane and something bad happened.
