# Fiction Friction
|
|
## story telling tool
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fiction Friction cards are prepared by two wonderers who spent a fair
|
|
amount of time thinking about healing,witchcraft and (contemporary)
|
|
witch-hunting, rituals, Tarot culture. This approach can be seen as a
|
|
way to create a ritual or a (personal) journey into a collective
|
|
representation. The cards in a way carry our identities, individual
|
|
pasts, collective memory moments, frictions and fictions. Our intention
|
|
was to reclaim the tarrot card ritual and reconsider the relation
|
|
between the given interpretation and the figure of the future teller by
|
|
reversing it- since he group of the players will be able to collectively
|
|
reimagine their own meaning of the cards. We are keen to see how
|
|
similiar or completely different experiences can be shared and learned
|
|
through this round of excercise. This small game/tool is a possibility
|
|
to write together, meet, connect, talk about unpeakable things, share,
|
|
interprete or even conflict. The card is a starting point, an interface
|
|
for an opening, for a promising healing, for a collective moment.
|
|
|
|
Fiction Friction is a tool for (hyper)textual conversations on (via)
|
|
abstract/symbolic/surrealistic collage cards. We based our collaging on
|
|
political events that we have experienced or have been part of our
|
|
memories, mythological figures from our cultures, collective memory
|
|
moments, literature that has inspired us, musical references,
|
|
individuals etc. The main components of the game are a deck of
|
|
illustrated cards, a dice with different methods of interpretation, an
|
|
empty deck to host the new potential stories created by the players.
|
|
|
|
How to play:
|
|
|
|
The fiction friction game/tool consists of a deck of collage illustrated
|
|
cards that the players can use in three possible ways.
|
|
|
|
1\. -One player picks a card from the illustrated card deck and place it
|
|
in the middle. The card is the starting point of a collective
|
|
(hypertextual) story.
|
|
|
|
-Everyone takes an empty card.
|
|
|
|
-In turns, players throw the dice to indicate the possible methods to
|
|
write/draw/illustrate about or via the revealed card.
|
|
|
|
-In the end of the round a small story will be created out of the
|
|
interpretations of each player.
|
|
|
|
2\. -Each player picks an illustrated card and an empty card from the
|
|
deck without revealing the card to others.
|
|
|
|
-The first player starts with a sentence about their card and leaves the
|
|
illustrated card upside down in the middle.
|
|
|
|
-Other players continue with their sentences\' according to the card in
|
|
their hands.
|
|
|
|
-The illustrated cards are shuffled and then revealed. Everybody then
|
|
makes a guess and match the card with the right sentence.
|
|
|
|
-The dice can be used to choose a method if preferred.
|
|
|
|
3\. -One player picks a card and place it in the middle.
|
|
|
|
-The player who picked the card throws the dice and interprets the card
|
|
accordingly.
|
|
|
|
-The other players throw the dice in turns and continue the narrative.
