We have been invited by the Documenta Institute to play a show in Kassel this Saturday at their symposium on re-imagining the political through media. @joostvervoort will speak to this issue, and then his academic nerdery will transition into our raging live set. Fuck yes.

Our paper '9 dimensions for evaluating how art and creative practice stimulate societal transformations' is out! The result of years of work with researchers, artists, funders and policy makers in CreaTures to develop a rich shared language! ecologyandsociety.org/vol29/is

All Rise — an inappropriately joyous game about fighting for the planet. A major report on our game that clashes Phoenix Wright, Disco Elysium and deck building with the ecological crisis - to help fund real court cases. Spread this far and wide! anticiplay.medium.com/all-rise

Go get our tape now from fiadh.bandcamp.com! Very limited copies, so move fast. Or if you're in Europe, get it from us (we have even fewer copies so go go go): terzijdehorde.bandcamp.com

dBs is core to the Utrecht/Dutch music scene. They are closing and their future is uncertain. We were asked to play their final show. We're reconnecting with our hardcore origins - we've invited the great Mindwar and Bezette Stad. Get tickets! dbstudio.nl/event/terzij-de-ho

I'm writing a blog about goblin energy in a coffee place just as a break from other stuff. My friend Sanne comes by for a quick tea. A toddler dashes over to us and absolutely smashes my tea glass from the table with a purposesful smack of a hand. A true king of goblin activism.

@sidersadapts haven't played it yet but will give it a go!

I love climate change #VideoGames, & I am just now learning about #Floodland - "explore, build, expand, and make hard decisions in this world destroyed by #ClimateChange" #CliFi

Has anyone played? @joostvervoort calling you out here

Floodland has 3/5 stars on Steam, with some less-than-favorable comparisons to #Frostpunk; I'm still adding it to my "to play" list for that mythical future when I have time. RT ht/MattVan

Any other new climate games I should know about?
