Heartbeat Symposium

Heartbeat Symposium is a 3-day immersive conference about Love, Sex and Romance in games.

I developed this event for Blushbox Collective and it ran in 2017 for the first time. I raised $25,000 in order to fund the event.

I designed the event programming, site design, activities, workshops and managed the Blushbox CLTV team to implement, graphic design, coordinate speakers, attendees, venues, funding and more.

This event was inspired by Lyst Summit which I attended with Blushbox CLTV in 2016.

The event was a 3 day format set in Byron Bay, Australia. I believe that location and environment has a massive impact on what get’s produced at game jams. It was therefore critical to me to chose an inspiring location that fosters, inspiration, relaxation, openness and safety.
