Game Preparation

Each collective must have a copy of the 3TS card game to facilitate remote game sessions. Because we encourage endogenous praxis, and we prefer avoiding global logistics when possible, we make the source files available for your collective to print locally. But if you prefer, we can have some games shipped to you. Make us know early so you can get the games before the first session!

We propose that participant collectives find a print shop nearby and print their own card game locally, using the PDF files mentioned above as Printable 3TS Card Game ZIP. If you would like to translate the game in your language, you can use the 3TS Card Game SVG source files and make your changes, then print the required cards. Warning: either way, this is something you want to start now because it will take longer than you expect.

→ The preparation channel is a dedicated Mattermost channel at #3ts-third-technoscape.
