The Hitchhiker's Guide to an Active Archive (Wordhole)
The Hitchhiker's Guide to an Active Archive is an interactive radio play that was performed live by XPUB students Rosa, Anita and Thijs and broadcast on Radio Worm on 2023-10-24. They each voiced one of the three voices present in the script.
During the broadcast, a pad was used as the channel of communication between the Caretakers / performers of the show, and the audience. There was room for open interaction, and the story includes multiple forms of decision making (polls, dicerolls and time requirements) by the audience to navigate the non-linear script. The non-linearity is captured in a flowchart that was provided to listeners of the show.
The show could be recreated using the associated wiki pages and a fresh channel of communication (e.g. another EtherPad).
