My thesis project, Lesberation, is a board game inspired by the gay liberation movements of the late 1960s. It uses the gutsy, anti-authoritarian energy of thes movements as inspiration for a game that explores rule-breaking, choice and social interaction. The project builds upon the idea that as dynamic systems, games promote exploration, create meaning and involve players in an imaginary space of possibility.
