Lav din egen timelapse over bygninger i Danmark! bbr.findvej.dk "Jeg" (dvs. et grafikkort et sted i verden, som jeg har spurgt pænt og mange gange) har kodet en side, så man selv kan udforske udviklingen af bygninger forskellige steder i Danmark.

"The barbarian hordes are marching on Rome, send reinforcements". Optional rule when playing Romans: First time you cross the Rubicon, you must say "Alea iacta est!" #folklabhallunda #chess

Deadline Friday this week! Draw a monster for Spooky Town and get a copy of the game. #folklabhallunda #spookytown

Halloween is coming and Spooky Town is not big enough for all its scary monsters... We are creating a game together at Folk Lab Hallunda. Hand in a drawing before Halloween and get a copy of the game. We need more zombies and more skeletons! #spooky-town #folklabhallunda

Board game design tonight at Folk Lab Hallunda 16:00-20:00, Borgvägen 1, 145 68 Norsborg (end of the red line in Stockholm). We have materials and machines to help you realise your game idea. #folklabhallunda

Just solved a game design problem in my latest project while in the bathroom not thinking about anything very much except shaving. The unconscious mind, wow, it has no idea how to pick its moment. This is for Carol of Duty, if anyone's keeping track, a one-session RPG where you play Spec Ops Elves,

Jeg er gået i gang med at gense X-Files, og det er første gang, siden det blev vist på TV, at jeg forsøger at gøre det systematisk. Første sæson er ret interessant. Der er meget at opdage fra seriens tre blikke på det unaturlige til den gryende mobiltelefoni til populariseringen af horror topoi

#playtesting in #alphaspel today. Rock Paper Divisor and "the pentomino game", two designs of mine plus two games brought by Douglas & Anders. We had four guests so we could test with high player count -- great!

Using LLMs to write code is disrupting IT organisations. It becomes much more important *what you do* and *why* when what previously took weeks and months now take days or hours. Especially if you choose to keep doing as you have always done. What *do you want to do* and *why*?

I followed a link to FB today. For some reason people still use a walled garden to promote and organise open events. I read the event description and a little down the feed. Then the screen was blocked with a message "the experience is much better if you sign in". No thanks.

Folk Lab is about making technology accessible. I'm exploring using pentominoes to communicate this idea. Can you instruct a person in another location to build a replica of a pentomino figure you see in front of you? #folklabhallunda

I printed two sets and had our co creators at Folk Lab help explore this idea. We had fun coming up with challenges. Which one is the s-shaped piece? What does it mean to place one piece on top of another?
