MINDCRAFT is hacked version of the famous game Minecraft that encourages the audience to think about questions surrounding sustainability, and the creation and destruction of cities, civilizations, and societies.

‘Game Design for Plants’ is a workshop format, developed by PhD student Ida Marie Toft, in which participants are asked to engage with a challenging and thought provoking task of designing games for a variety of house plants.

The workshop is a practical design intervention around the otherwise rather theoretical conversations of New Materialism and Cross-Species Studies, critically engaging questions around agency, individuality, community, choice, difference, sensorial systems, power, play as well as both history and recent trends in plant biology and plant communication.
