The Development of Fafifi

Introduction & Background

The idea to create an island came in the second phase of MOMA's development which happened in 2022 when David Rose found confidence to fully embrace the idea of integrating gaming into the WIKIMOMA Community Arts Project. The initial phase in 2021 saw the development of the Protocols of MOMA with very basic, mostly low-key, role-playing elements; for example, (1) people who didn't consider themselves artists making artwork at proposed museum art workshops and contributing the works to the museum, or (2) participants playing the role of curator by assembling exhibitions to be shown in structures created according to the Protocols.
