PanoptiCorp is the name of a fictive, global, elite advertising/PR agency, and the name of a satirical larp where players portray the employees of an office that agency. It is a satirical take on the modern workplace, and of our media-saturated present. The corpers (characters) are constantly competing with each other to appear cool, and to discover and decide what "cool" will be during the next second. One of the victims of this persistent cool-hunts and status-games is the ethics of the characters.
The larp was originally developed and run in Norway in July 2003 by a team lead by Irene Tanke. A re-make of the larp was held in Copenhagen in June 2013 produced by Claus Raasted/Rollespilsfabrikken.
