Public places such as the street, the city and cyberspaces are often designed by men for men. What forms could bridges, corridors, streets, buildings take if they were designed by people who experience violence? What are the places that are afraid of fear? Why ? What forms of streets, buildings, signage, tools could allow people who experience violence to occupy these spaces and feel more at ease there? What means of self-defense can we put in place to resist them? How to deal with street harassment? What strategies can we put in place to move around safely and feel legitimate?
Ruetopia is a visual novel creation project, a digital novel, an interactive textual narrative game that tells a story with visual support in the background. The player interacts with the story by making choices, so there are several possible scenarios within the game.
Imagined as a tool of empowerment that seizes the problems of symbolic, verbal and physical violence in the public space, this fiction takes the appearance of a book of which you are the heroine to propose solutions of actions and of self-defense, dreaming up new designs for these spaces.
A project by Blanche Lafarge, Louise Lafarge and Noémie Pirus-Hassid
