The women in your game show the reality of life for your
grandmother, your mother and yourself. What do you
want to see for your daughter?

I would like my daughter to be able to pursue her own
goals and to also have the freedom to actually achieve
them. Of course, she might also discover that perhaps
not all goals can be achieved. But I would like to see a society
that at least offers the same opportunity for everybody
to find happiness.
Dear Lea, many thanks for the wonderful conversation!
You’re welcome, it was my pleasure.

women for women. She has international experience at

of games and she continues to contribute to the development
and opening of German games culture through
her work.
JULIAN JUNGEL runs the «Labor für Digitalität» at the
Ernst Busch Academy of Dramatic Arts in Berlin, where
they focus on the space in which storytelling, craftsmanship
and theatre meet digital technology. Together with
the M.A. «Spiel und Objekt», participatory theatre, mixed
reality games and other formats are created to question
social aspects, our life on planet earth and the roles of
humans and technology.

aiming to revive creativity with the help of agile
technology. Tinkertank works with companies, cities and
incubators to find fun and inspiring ways to discuss the
context of technology, culture, science and digitalisation.
