Carolina has a masters degree in cultural studies with a focus on immaterial culture and how people make sense of the world they live in. She has also studied religious studies and was particularly interested in sociology and psychology of religion. Later she realised she likes to organise stuff so much she decided to become an archivist so she can organise and preserve information to last forever. When organising larps her focus is on atmosphere, a well designed experience, and workshops. Her blackbox larps - most notably Aniara: a larp about man in time and space - have been run at Blackbox Copenhagen, Grenselandet in Oslo, Stockholm Scenario Festival, The Smoke in London, KP/SK, and at the Swedish larp convention Prolog.

Martina works strict government jobs and lives for games of all kinds. Not great at the squishy stuff, though, and so handles the logistics of sending you into space. We all know how that will work out.
