FUGACE. Brevi storie in libertà
BA Visual Communication Project
2021
semester
In a 2020 marked by quarantines and traumatic events, full of absurdity, disbelief and hope, people looked for a way to escape the reality they were experiencing. We have therefore come to drastically reject the life that had been imposed on us by reclaiming our freedom with the only use of our imagination. Every twist and turn is possible, no law governs the universe, the only limit is your imagination.
Fugace. Brevi storie in libertà is a game that allows you to break down the physical confining walls and to provide a playful, light-hearted dimension through storytelling. The deck of cards is a basis for telling short stories: the 90 cards that make up the deck are based on literary archetypes that were adapted to our contemporary enviroment and that can be interpreted during the development of the story. The deck is divided into five categories of cards: goal, instrument, envi- ronment, action and character. With the help of the cards, players find themselves creating new realities and new alternative worlds to their own, implementing an imaginary mental escape.
