A very insightful project, really makes one think about the loss of Third Spaces in general and how things like Worker's Clubs could be hugely beneficial to societies. Very well put together!
Such a bittersweet and inspiring experience. People tend to really underestimate how much hope and creative energy was set free in the very beginning of the Soviet project, and how much of a complete and utter defeat it ended up being, a proper tragedy, when it became nothing more than another machine exploiting its people to accumulate national capital in the 30s. How would workers' clubs look today, indeed? I imagine them like a mix of an arcade+restaurant a la Chuck E. Cheese's, only without the commercialisation and a bit of a different focus, with a makerspace integrated into it. Maybe some kind of hostel facilities, too, for visitors.
Very cute, I wonder if this game jam could be our equivalent of a worker's club...
