I center play as an alternative to extractive or competitive knowledge building. Play as in pleasure, not as in frivolousness (and we still must make space for this, too!). I center the erotics (see: Audre Lorde’s Uses of the Erotic: The Erotic as Power, 1978) of learning. We design and facilitate playful interactions rooted in algorithmic exercises (chance!), collective learning, and the publication of workbooks and other learning materials that center collaboration.
