Prosopopeia Bardo 1 "Där vi föll"

Prosopopeia Bardo 1 "Där vi föll", was a pervasive larp staged in Stockholm in June 2005. Twelve participants played themselves, possessed by ghosts that temporarily come back to our world to fulfill a mission and redeem their old wrongdoings. The larp used surveillance and mobile communications equipment to create a larp that extended to the streets of Stockholm.
