Introducing Game-Changers: The Game, a public storytelling board game that blurs the lines between reality and simulation. The stage is set for a clash between Capitalists and Commoners as they battle it out to seize the hottest buzzwords of the new economy. And that’s not all – enter the interactive audience, known as “peerticipants”, who have the power to shape the game’s outcome in real time.
In the game, two teams that embody seemingly opposite discursive poles – for example Capitalism vs. Commonism, Green Growth vs. Degrowth, or Vectoralists vs. the Hacker Class – compete in creating compelling storylines about transformation in order to lay claim to playing fields consisting of real-world “new economy” initiatives and related ideas.
To create these stories, the teams must use the Challenge and Intervention cards available to them at a given time or respond to the cards already linked to particular playing fields. Another, third set of cards, Wildcards, is composed of “external” events which can offer unique windows of opportunity for either team or skew the balance in a number of ways.
Audiences (peerticipants) evaluate the players’ storylines in real time and, in doing so, affect their chance of success. As a peerticipant, you also have the option to contribute prompt cards (prior to or during the event) for the players, making the game a dynamic knowledge commoning and scenario-building tool.

Outside the BigMac, vol.5: October Edition
For this session of Outside the Big Mac, dedicated to artists connected in different ways to the legacy of the post-punk era
The event takes place on the 10th of October starting at 20:00:00.
For this session of Outside the Big Mac, dedicated to artists connected in different ways to the legacy of the post-punk era, we open the evening with Ran Huber (amSTART). His contribution will take the form of a conversation around DIY culture and Berlin’s long-standing tradition of making art outside of growth-driven ambitions. The live program brings together Chris Imler and Cosey Mueller, two artists from different generations whose work blends post-punk sensibilities with electronic music. Mat Pogo — improv punk musician, producer, DJ, and cartoonist — will present a short, voice-only micro-performance. To close the night, Caillou, former curator at Urban Spree and current force behind Milk Me, will deliver a selection of synth-driven tracks spanning new wave and EBM. Please contact us on our Instagram channel if you would like to attend and have either financial limits or there are some access requirements that me should be aware of. Thank you.
The tickets are at three prices, you choose what to pay. This is not reflected in the name: early bird is a social ticket, 1st release is the normal price, the 2nd release is for a supporter ticket. Funded by Music Board Berlin

The event takes place on the 15th of October starting at 19:00:00.
~ Our favorite live bands from the Berlin scene FLIGHTMODE ~ we heben ab a bit more guitar-heavy than last time, but no less diverse ~ Singer-songwriter FRITZI guides us through boarding & take off with sanften sounds and German lyrics that sound heavy with autumn melancholy, every now and then falling into grungier walls of sound, which makes the contrast to her persona all the more exciting. FRANCOS PAIN flies us um die ears with an exciting solo setup through atmospheric post punk songs, far from rigid song structures, and still always catchy ~ KRESSE 3 bring us back down to earth of tatsachen with driving grooves and poetic lyrics, playing their first show since their sold out album release party this summer The safe landing, which might get pretty turbulent though~ WHISKER as final act takes us through eccentric prog and experimental rock worlds and are definitely the most nerven zerreibender act tonight ~ Come join us from 7pm, show starts at 8pm. Can’t wait ~ Presale 10 euros, a little more at the door, so get your ticket now! ~
