ABSTRACT

Punographic explicitness as intimacy technique is inspired by Pornature, a design philosophy by Nordic play guru Pekko Koskinen. Punography, the art of lame wordplay for the sake of intimate play, has two important functions in game design. First, it cuntextualizes references that are sadly not yet loaded with sexual associations. This empowers both players and designers to cuntrol the amount of cuntent they deem appropriate in a given playful situation. Second, punography can have a punitive effect on those who mystify intimacy to refuse discourse. Pornature is the discovery of nature's pornographic essence through simple exercises of projection. Punography infuses the world with sex, seeing the magnificent and the desirable in simple acts of nature. On the punographic level, the mantra "Lovebirds, sitting on a branch there, beaking" reminds the players of the low risk environment. It pushes attention to the fiction uniting all birds through awkward biology.
