Introduction: The Dark Arts of Game Design
by picks from the Cabinet of Curiosities of Francine Boon<\/strong>, Klemens Franz<\/strong>, Konstantin Mitgutsch<\/strong>, Simon Huber<\/strong>. We test an interdisciplinary approach to uncover how tacit knowledge is processed through the act of play \u2014 in a pre-discursive space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We co-created a deck of cards, treating game design itself as a form of research, placed at the intersection of art and science \u2014 tactile, poetic, and open-ended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We engaged with the male and female cycles as a rhythmic foundation for collective creativity and playful exchange \u2014 moving beyond flow as cognitive metaphor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We discussed the promises and challenges of Ludology within the contemporary academic landscape \u2014 as well as its potential for intentionally shaping urban spaces to strengthen the public sphere; the social fabric of the infra-ordinary.
