The Fifth Fire roleplaying game with artist Tom K Kemp
About this Event
The Fifth Fire is a prototype roleplaying game by artist Tom K Kemp. Working in groups, you are invited to imagine a world in which all its fire—from forest fires to industrial power and weaponry to ovens, candles, and cigarettes—have gone on strike.
Doors open at 18:00
Tom K Kemp is a filmmaker and artist who employs game writing, film and installation to examine and reimagine the structures that organise collective life. Working primarily through the roleplaying game form, he combines simulation and genre fiction into semi-improvised group storytelling, in which participants generate plot, dialogue, diagram and performance together. By folding political metaphor and imagined worlds into gameplay shaped by players’ lived experience and digressions, his work explores group agency and the unintended consequences of modelling reality.
