In September I was invited by Chloe Varelidi to give a talk about playful culture at the play festival Athens Plaython in Greece.
The first day consisted of talks from Bernie DeKoven, William Drew, Amani Naseem, Jakob La Cour, Polypolis, Elini Kolovou – Their videos are up here: https://vimeo.com/user21727420/videos as well as mine.
On Sunday it was time for a playsession with Bernie DeKoven and games on the streets of Athens from Lena Mech & Patrick Jarnfelt, The Larks, Jakob la Cour, Copenhagen Game Collective, Themis Gion and others.
Athens Plaython Talks & Games line-up:
Of course I was there to take photos and make some vines as well and found a vine, tweet and photography partner in Dimitris Tzouris. Great fun!
I’d like to thank all Athens Plaython organisers, volunteers, designers and speakers for great playful times and the hospitality in Athens.
I’ve collected my vines in a storify and uploaded my photos to flickr. Have a look for some more (moving) images!
