Gurus of the Apocalypse

This is a story whose meaning belongs to you and you alone.


This is a game of sorts.


The question is, what are you going to bring to this game?


This is a moment where community has more value than art
Use what matters.

Gurus of the Apocalypse

This game was inspired by the transcript of a Skype conversation between artist colleagues that took place online in March 2020, at the start of the COVID19 lockdown in the UK.

 

I was not involved in the original Skype, and only had the transcript to understand what was talked about.

​

Most of the text in this game has been copied directly from the transcript. Some of it has been edited, some of it is my own invention.

​

The Being is based on Will Powers, the gender playful alter-ego of New York photographer Lyn Goldsmith.

Many of the quotes assigned to the Gurus are (unbelievably) genuine (don't follow gurus).
