Description
This is a print on demand copy and is not an original copy.
Continuing his interest in working with historical and ‘found’ texts, Tim Hutchings presents the game Our Vacation. Our Vacation is built around a photo album in which the family never appears. It pairs the pages of the album with words extracted from Great American Road Stories like On the Road by Jack Kerouac, The Road by Cormac McCarthy, Damnation Alley (both the film and the book by Roger Zelazny), Little Miss Sunshine and other films and novels.
The game book is left in one place for days or weeks or months, along with scissors, tape, and pens. People with a free moment can sit down and cut out words and stick them to pictures; if a photo has three words stuck to it someone can write a story about the picture next to it using those words as prompts. The notes are written as if by someone who was there, telling us what happened that day or why the photograph was taken.
