Become an architect, a landscape designer, a civic planner!

Through a series of creative games you will communally devise a new neighbourhood. Uncover the topography of the land and work with it to build a vibrant living town. Then, through some poetic prompts, chart the history and culture of the area.

It All Flows Somewhere is a large-scale tabletop map-making game. After the session, the physical maps will be scanned and translated into a digital world that you can visit at home!

This session is suitable for all ages: adults, families, children (12+). Anyone under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult.

Parents and carers are welcome to take part in the session - you will need to book a ticket.

Parents and carers accompanying children do not need to book a ticket, but are required to stay for the duration of the activity.

Adult £12, Child £10

Nick Murray is a producer, game-maker and artist making socially-led narrative work focusing on loss, collective memory and digital cultures. They are particularly interested in how our digital lives can exist in closer balance with our physical lives; how we can reuse existing technologies, and how we can tend to our digital spaces to build a more community-focused future. What this looks like is games about Tamagotchis and essays about Wipeout 2097. But it also looks like walking games for families and poetic invitations to clean up your local river.

Formerly, Nick was lead producer for Now Play This at Somerset House, director of Playing Poetry and associate producer with Penned in the Margins. In 2023 Nick was selected as part of Film London’s Lodestars cohort, celebrating innovative fi lm and game-makers across the capital. Nick’s recent solo show Return to Dreamphone, exploring local archives and the tributaries of the River Brent, was exhibited at Barham Park Studios (March 2025).
