Lecture: Larp organizing – A phase-based approach

Description
This lecture will present a model for structuring the process of organising a larp in a number of phases, each with its own characteristics, challenges and advantages. The premise of the lecture is that an increased awareness of these phases will help optimize the distribution of the resources available to organizers, thus make better larps with the same resources. The model is a collaboration between Kåre M. Kjær and Morten Lahrmann, who both have a background in modern industrial management and have been active larpers and organisers on the Danish scene since respectively 2000 and 2001.

Main interest being the application of modern management tools in the context of larp with the goal of elevating the current larp scene to new heights by improving the utilisation of resources.
