Sunrise Farm - Board Game
Sunrise Farm is a food-focused agrarian settlement, conceived as an informal learning hub and entrepreneurial cooperative, attracting people with diverse interests, literacies and skillsets, essential to the immediate task at hand, to share knowledge as they cooperatively imagine and create the social and physical architecture for a resilient local commune on rural lands.
An extension of the Sustainable Farming Commune project, this board game explores the contrasting mechanics of communal progress, land ownership, and natural disasters. Referencing ideas from David Graeber in ‘The Dawn of Everything’, and Stardew Valley, we created a quasi-cooperative game where players work towards a goal of creating common infrastructure.
The game was tested at SCI-Arc and USC Roski.
