LAS Art Foundation

LAS Art Foundation is pleased to present Emotional Futures, an online game that prompts you to invest in your own emotional future.

Emotional Futures, created by the IRL game collective, is part of LAS Online. It invites players to explore their emotional futures through interactions with friends. After each exchange, players evaluate their emotional output, turning them into liquid currencies: Blood, Sweat and Tears. These feed each player's unique Emoxy — a virtual creature that evolves with every emotional exchange.

For the next two months, visitors will encounter an Emoxy on the LAS website, opening a portal into the game.

Play now at:
www.emotionalfutures.com

Emotional Futures is produced by IRL, a gaming collective under the distributed artistic direction of Marcel Darienzo, Carina Erdmann, Steph Holl-Trieu, Andrew Pasquier, Xiaoji Song, Moritz Tontsch and Ingeborg Wie Henriksen. IRL brings together the diverse political and creative practices of its members, to produce games that engage audiences in physical and digital role-playing. IRL emerged from a hackathon organised by the Berlin-based collective Black Swan at KW Institute for Contemporary Art, Berlin, in August 2021. The following year, the group developed their first game concept while undertaking a residency at Callie’s. Their first game, Emotional Futures, is commissioned by LAS Art Foundation.
