In larp, we often fall on cliches about nonhuman life: the kitschy pastoral landscapes, the untamed wild, the nature/culture divide. But we live in an entangled world where the human and the nonhuman meet and interact and affect one another on a daily basis. How can we invite this sort of more-than-human, biocentric thinking into larp? Can we treat nature in larp in non-instrumental ways? What does posthumanist philosophy have to offer to larpers and larp design? The talk is intended to inspire larpers and larp creators to think beyond the human.
