The Master Builder of Extraordinary Experiences
Life is a Festival #11: Benja Juster (Rubbermaid Parties)
From Nectar Village at Burning Man, to psychedelic interactive games, to secret parties, Benja Juster is a master experience designer. On this episode we discuss the four elements of a dynamic experience, Benja’s time at the College of Extraordinary Experiences and different types of participatory events including immersive theater (like Sleep No More), explorative worlds (like Meow Wolf) and alternate reality games.
If you like fun and especially if you like creating fun for others, this might be the episode for you!
