We are casting for 6 characters. All ages, genders, races – especially folks from historically marginalized groups (i.e. BIPOC, LGBTQIA2S+, non-native English speakers) – are encouraged to audition.

The Liminary is a devised theatre piece, meaning the actors cast in this production will be involved in the narrative process, helping to shape, write, and develop the story.

We are looking for actors that are very comfortable with improv, preferably with past immersive/interactive theatre experience. Experience with writing or devised theatre preferred. During the show, the actors’ main priorities will be making connections and guiding the audience's personal exploration and engagement in the themes and topics of the piece.

Marketing Manager
PostCurious
Term: Full-time, 30-35 hours/week
Compensation: $60,000-$75,000/year plus benefits
Trial Period: 1-3 Months

LINK

PostCurious is a small but mighty team of two. Our work environment is casual but dedicated, with more autonomy than hierarchy and more self-direction than micromanaging. We’re sincerely passionate about this work and seeking the same from our new hire.

We recognize the below responsibilities might look like a lot for just one person. Honestly, they are! We each wear a lot of hats, and we’ll expect the same from our Marketing Manager. That being said, we’re still a small company, and many of these tasks don’t actually take up much time day-to-day. For context, we currently manage most of these responsibilities alongside the rest of our work, and even so, we rarely work a full 40-hour week. As a team, we value work/life balance and prioritize a sustainable workload over maximizing output. A happy and healthy employee who sticks around is better than one who gets pushed too hard and then burns out.

BOURNEMOUTH, UK/REMOTE

2026 New Media Writing Prize Annual Unconference
Unconference Theme: Fight the Future
Event Dates: 12-13 May 2026
Fee: ELO Membership required $25 (students), $50+
Deadline: 28 Feb. 2026

LINK

"Fight the Future" frames interactive digital narrative as a site of resistance, rehearsal, and collective world-building in a time when “the future” is increasingly pre-scripted by corporate algorithms, patriarchal norms, political fascism, and extractive responses to climate crisis. By fighting the future, we do not mean rejecting futurity itself, but refusing inevitability: resisting default, dystopian trajectories and instead playfully, critically, and collectively co-creating alternative futures grounded in care, justice, and solidarity. We invite playful, participatory, and experimental work and activites that use interaction, liveness, and co-creation to imagine and rehearse worlds otherwise — from small-scale narrative interventions to speculative systems and performative digital practices.

While AI is an unavoidable condition of contemporary digital culture, this Unconference is not an AI conference; rather, we welcome work that engages AI as material, constraint, collaborator, antagonist, or object of critique alongside broader explorations of interactive storytelling, social change, and collective imagination.
