Laivfabrikken Oslo - the "[[Larp Factory]]" - is an Oslo-based network of larp organisers who aim to produce at least one larp each month, every month. The larps last less than a day, hold high quality, and have a low threshold for participation.
Laivfabrikken is coordinated by a group called "limet" - "the glue". The members of this group changes from semester to semester, and consists of organizers and larpers in general who wishes to contribute in the "do-ocracy". Every semester there's a pitching forum, where organisers pitch their upcoming larps, and collectively decide which larps go on the calendar.
== History ==
After years of loose talk and occasional planning, laivfabrikken was formally founded in May [[2009]], and had by the end of the first season held 10 larps, most designed by local larpwrights and some imported scenarios such as J. Tuomas Harviainen's "[[Prayers on a Porcelain Altar]]" and Jeepen's "[[The Upgrade]]". Inspired by [[the Fønix project]] in Bergen, with a similar emphasis on short low-threshold/high-quality larps, and motivated by a desire to reach out to new players and to provide larp experiences to older players who no longer had the time to participate in the 2-5-days long high-preparation larps common in Norway. Since its creation, Laivfabrikken Oslo has inspired the creation of several other [[Larp Factory|larp factories]].
