Ken Eklund
Director of Game Design
A designer of a new breed of collaborative and socially relevant games, Ken is a leader in the emerging genre of alternate reality games, especially those that create playful “what if?” spaces that invite massive public participation. Ken created World Without Oil, the groundbreaking collective imagining of our next oil shock, for ITVS in 2007 and Ruby’s Bequest, the first grassroots exploration of health care futures, for Institute For The Future and United Cerebral Palsy in 2009. He has designed games professionally for over 20 years.
Ken’s mission with Green21: to launch massively participatory narratives that encourage its viewers to interact directly with the challenges and dilemmas of sustainability and which encourage democratic, innovative and massively collaborative solutions and action.
