New Larp Study: Researchers from Carnegie Carnegie Mellon University…
We are a research team from Carnegie Mellon University conducting online interviews with larpers, game organizers, and other people in the American larp community about how they use technology in and around larp. If you’ve ever sent a larp-related email or posted about larp online, we’re interested in talking to you.
Survey on Photos, Video, and Privacy
Survey on Photos, Video, and Privacy
The purpose of this survey is to collect information and attitudes concerning documentation of larps, particularly in photo and video form. As larp, particularly Nordic Larp, gains ground as a cultural activity, the desire to document these events becomes more prominent, while the ability to document them is assisted by the ease of photographic devices and a general culture of constant documentation and dissemination of photo and video material. At the same time, many players raise concerns about how the presence of recording devices can affect them as characters and as players, affecting their in-game experience or their real lives after the larp. There are a few smaller parts of the questionnaire, followed by a 50-question section on players’ feelings on larps and photographic documentation. Part of the aim of this survey is to develop a community-led photo and video policy document that can be used by organizers for future projects. Thanks for your participation. All answers are anonymous.
This results will be publicly available, please help the larp community learn more about itself.
