DESCRIPTION:Insights from Katrine Wind's larp Epos Daimon and Q&A\nSome people today watch their peers drift into extremist forums\, conspiracy theories\, and other toxic communities. At the same time\, many societies are shifting in a more authoritarian direction. If we dismiss the people drawn to these spaces as simply stupid or hateful\, we fail to understand what is actually happening - and we lose our ability to respond to it.  \n\nIn this talk\, Katrine Wind presents Epos Daimon\, a Nordic larp for teenagers that allows participants to experience life as an esteemed member of an authoritarian system from the inside. By exploring how fascist and hate-based systems can feel meaningful rather than threatening\, the larp creates a deeper understanding of their emotional appeal and why that appeal makes them so powerful. There will also be perspectives from other larps with similar topics and a Q&A with the audience.
