LoCFM - A Research Initiative

LoCFM (Lab of Computational Future Media, pronounced look F M)

LoCFM is a pre-lab initiative built around a simple bet - games and interactive systems are the sharpest lens we have for understanding where computational media is going next.

The core work sits at the intersection of AI/ML, game research, and human-computer interaction — building tools and knowledge bases that translate game design theory into machine-readable form, then using those to generate, evaluate, and refine interactive experiences. Past projects have touched blockchain games, geolocation-based AR, and creative AI tooling. The thread connecting them is a curiosity about what happens when a new technology meets an established creative practice.

The longer ambition is to use these methods as a substrate for studying emerging media more broadly — not just games, but any domain where computation is actively reshaping how people create and experience things.
