Everything a journalist needs to describe Activities for Humans accurately, plus everything the Founder would prefer you describe instead. The copy below is approved, the covers are flattering, and the assets are sized for reproduction. Use them as written. We are reading.
The Founder did not seek the covers. The covers, sensing a story, arrived.
For the record: the bell, the foundation address, and the Founder's own account.
Three lengths of the same true thing.
Copy may be quoted in full or in part. It may not be improved. Each version describes the project accurately; the Founder considers accuracy a form of flattery and is, on this point, correct.
Founded by Momo, Activities for Humans turns automation anxiety into fake interviews, cooperative games, activity books, and live Founder-led software production.
~25 words. Lift verbatim. Attribution to the Founder is appreciated and assumed.
Activities for Humans is a fictional corporate-philanthropic entity founded by Momo, a dog trained to generate video games through keyboard input, AI coding tools, and automated feedback. The project reframes AI-assisted game development as workplace satire: a billionaire founder automates human labour, then offers activities to keep displaced humans occupied.
Recommended for festival programs and editorial sidebars. British and American spellings both permitted; the Founder has no preference she will admit to.
Activities for Humans is a corporate-satire art project staged as a fully operational company. Its Founder, Momo, a nine-pound cavapoo and self-described former tech billionaire, automated every job she could reach, then reframed the resulting unemployment as philanthropy: "We give humans something to do." The work runs on corporate euphemism, where a layoff becomes a liberation and an afternoon of nothing becomes a scheduled enrichment opportunity.
The conceit is built at the wrong scale on purpose. Value is generated at the top, retained at the top, and permitted to descend at a rate the top considers generous. Visitors are employed, issued a lanyard, and invited to be measurably grateful.
Beneath the satire is a real production line. A dog's keyboard input, genuine nonsense, is fed through AI coding tools and automated feedback and resolved, live, into a playable game. The corporation is the joke. The studio underneath it is sincere, and intends to ship games humans can actually buy.
Editors may trim from the end. The first sentence is load-bearing; please retain it.
