This is a space where I document useful and interesting resources about design, video games and queer activism.

The Interface Drama Master List

Interface dramas are games that tell an immersive story through software and app interfaces. They are commonly called "desktop simulators" or "UI games," but I've found these labels to be either too prescriptive or too general to describe this emergent genre. I've made a master list of interface dramas here for people to play and build support for this unique type of game.

IWAKAN: A Queer Culture Magazine in Japan

IWAKAN was a Japanese queer and art magazine published between 2020 and 2023 that questioned stereotypes and the discomfort with what was considered "normal" in Japan. They have since ceased operation as of December 2023. I have compiled a list of each of the published issues with a short English summary and photos from their website.
