Bart Price is a British-American LARP (or live action role-play) designer and experimental filmmaker based in London. After having created and organized the LARP group (2023) — a simulation of a group therapy session involving 14 participants — he is now working on a long-term LARP project exploring the intersection of therapy and the construction of self. Projects and interests prior to his current work have included making video-art playing with AI neural network language models, co-directing two post-theatrical performances at the V&A — UBU (2018) and Hamletine (2019) — as well as creating DIY iPhone/stock footage music videos for Black Country, New Road (in addition to being album artist and creative director for BC,NR’s 2021 Mercury Prize shortlisted debut album For the first time) and the now Oscar-nominated Jerskin Fendrix among others. He is organizing a LARP at the Immersion LARP Festival 2024 in Turku, Finland and previously was shown at the Muse Gallery in London in 2023, as well as being shortlisted for the Aesthetica Art Prize 2022 — with his video work being shown as part of an exhibition at York Art Gallery — and exhibited in the show ‘Unite. Create. Transform.’ at StreetLife Hub (as part of the Aesthetica Short Film Festival 2022). Previously having for a time studied English Literature at Cambridge University, as well as at the Ruskin School of Art, he completed a BA in Fine Art at Chelsea College of Arts in 2023.
