Rules of the
game: Choose a miniscenario in one beansite. The animator indicates
an overall intention for the game, accompaigns it by comments and
adjustments. The game is played in rounds following the narrative
structure of EOTM represented by the four players. They are experts
from different fields, actors and agents from Tokyo and representatives
of interest groups or institutions, having all different backgrounds
and interests. Based on the initial miniscenario each player inserts
an action into the scenario by formulating it in one sentence. That
action responds to the unfolding of the game on the one hand and
contains the intentions of the player on the other hand. Each player
can insert his or her prototype in the game and play out the role
of actors and agents with their operational fields in order to test
their adaptability. The animator stops the scenario.
The scenario
game is a constant negotiation process simulating possible realities
in existing urban environments. Tokyo Story emerges as an interactive
communication between players in Tokyo, London and Amsterdam.
