Lore of Linkonia (2022)

Linkonia was a role-playing game and nation simulation conducted over Instagram from 2018 to 2019. The game featured dozens of part-time participants and incorporated the democratic inputs of hundreds of followers by allowing them to vote via Instagram stories. To my knowledge, this is the most extensive world building exercise and political exploration of its kind. Upon conclusion, the story was archived in a series of publicly available Google docs which are reproduced here. The game was pr...

How to Plant a Meme

In late 2018, I began a secret 18 month long project to infiltrate and positively influence radical online Gen Z communities. After publishing Politigram and the Post-left, I spoke with many of the users profiled. Through these conversations, I realized that little (if any) positive messaging would be able to penetrate unless that signal came from inside their trusted communities. So I started several anonymous meme accounts across various social media platforms. I will do my best to...

Zoe's Links (2022)

Over the course of nearly two years, 2016-18, Zoe Lorenz gathered this extensive list of links spanning political theory, history, philosophy and more. To my knowledge, this is the most comprehensive document of a young person’s politicization during a unique period of internet culture and American history. I hope that this project can help us to better understand the online environments that now shape young people’s beliefs and understanding of the world.
