EVERYTHING YOU EVER WANTED
2020
"A game that wonders what people will sacrifice to fulfill their deepest desires. Combining elements of college drama and folk horror, Everything You Ever Wanted holds space for its players to trace interpersonal character development after making a literal deal with a devil. The players will explore how their characters' goals, relationships and stories are shaped as they tap into deep-rooted ambitions and longings; select for them to manifest and pay the price, or to turn away, and live with the consequences of their choice."
A live action roleplaying experience about social status, self-perception and
the power of ritual.

DIRECTOR OF IMMERSIVE PERFORMANCE INSTALLATIONS
Jos Porath is a director of immersive performance installations, born and raised in Berlin, Germany. They have studied, trained, lived and worked in Germany, the United States, England and Austria. Jos has been directing and producing immersive performance installations since 2014, with a focus on creating work in and for the Berlin fringe performing arts scene. They are part of the collective denialofservice.fail.
Jos' performance installations are highly curated, site-sensitive and deep-immersive environments characterized by what artist Thomas Bellinck has described as "productive pessimism": the act of passing through dystopias so as to, eventually, contemplate new utopias in response.
Jos believes in the unique power of art that demands participation. Their work is dedicated to centering, activating and engaging the potential of the audience by involving them in the action directly. Jos' performance installations explore notions of accountability, self-determination and vulnerability in immersive formats.
