This exploratory game is an invitation to experience the sympoietic relations unfolding in the sentient swamp. Swamp is a perfect milieu to sense fragile interdependencies between the organisms and their habitat. Here every member of the community is part of every other member’s environment, as well as necessary for the survival of the whole.
