In a Nutshell
At RMIT University's GEElab, we are researching how game design thinking can positively affect and alter architecture & urbanism, mobility, popular media, storytelling, engagement, other sciences as well as society itself.
Have you ever played Table Tennis using two balls simultaneously, or a glow-in-the-dark one under pitch-black conditions? How about an unusual bat, or holding the bracket with your teeth, or feet–or both? What if the net was doubled in height, or curved, or made invisible using a magical spell? Can we come up with Ping Pong alternatives that are utter nonsense, and at the same time allow for interesting and jovial gameplay?
Join the GEElab Europe for the first Monthly Gameplay this side of the planet (Germany), for an experimental tournament of Alternative Table Tennis. Regular table, net, bats and balls provided.
