Its aim is to consolidate, group and summarise most of the relevant links scattered across the Libarynth and function as a convenient resource for visitors and developers. Within the logic of the project's narrative, it also embodied and reflected the efforts of Armoracio "Bud" Mineuz, the archivist patabotanist character, and was thus also in part subsumed within the augmented reality narrative, and was one facet and eventuality of its progression.</blockquote> | <blockquote>**Garginz** has been the ongoing archive and reference repository for [[http://borrowed-scenery.net/|Borrowed Scenery]].

| * [[:plot_characters_deities]] | [[http://fo.am/plot/|P~lot]] or Play Lab on Open Grown Territories brought together a motley crew of artists, designers, students, theorists and enthusiasts in the tiny Istrian village of Groznjan. P~lot was a workshop designed to examine the “play” and “games” as tools for mixing physical and digital realities. The workshop had two strands, called Gamespace and Playspace. Gamespace was designed to enhance creative skills in the field of online game development, specifically looking at context-based gaming environments, rooted in existing places such as the village of Groznjan. |
