Hello hello,

For the past year I've been conceptualizing a playable version of Hesse's Glass Bead Game. My background is in philosophy and art so I've been studying game design and ludology to fill in the gaps. I've also looked at all previous attempts to make the game, trawling through archive.org back to the 90s.

The result is like a Deviantart community, but integrates philosophy, cocreative games (like dada.nyc but more fun and all media), mentoring, guilds and game sharding amongst other things, whilst remaining simple and exciting to play.

I've successful prototyped the fundamental dynamics IRL, and it's now ready to be made into a web version. If anyone is a coder and wants to help create a community, get in touch!
