Tinderbox Collective: Playing Poetry
Come and try this playable game installation influenced by the poetry of Edwin Morgan and other technology-inspired poets. Created by young game designers from Tinderbox Games Club over two months, the work touches on themes of technology and poetry in various forms, and features art, audio, custom controllers, set, and story designed collaboratively by the group. The young people will also be demonstrating their game on Sunday’s Gaming the System panel.
