Sooo on July 31st I went down to London town for a workshop with Coney.

I applied through Ideas-tap and was one of the chosen few who were selected to attend the workshop. It was a great afternoon where Tassos Stevens talked about the immersive experiences that Coney make as well as running a few exercises with us as a group that were great fun. Coney make work that some people describe as games others as immersive theatre but either way they offer agency to the audience.

Over the past few years I found myself being more and more involved with immersive/gaming experiences. I started off as performing in games that other people were creating to being co-creator of Block Party which was the headline game at PlayArk games festival 2013. So the workshop was a brilliant opportunity for me to compare what I was doing with other people who are doing similar things.

It was a brilliant day where I got to meet lots of other interesting people as well as learning a few new tips and having some things I already knew confirmed. I have to say a massive thank you to TEAM who helped me to attend the workshop which I wouldn't of been able to do other wise.

Hopefully I will get to put my new knowledge to the test soon and you can all come and test out the new experience.
