Last month, artist and game designer Nikki Pugh led an utterly charming, often hilarious community residency at the City Gallery in Leicester, UK. I spoke with Nikki this week to learn more about the Ministry and their fun and games. How did the museum staff respond to this experience? How did this project come about?

It's the most direct reason I ended up working in museums. So I went into science museums psyched to share the good stuff with people, to let them see that math can mean big problems and big crazy ideas.

It's the new year, and while I spent the holiday drinking rum punch from a bucket and playing an absurdly fun game called testicle toss , perhaps others of you were at more sophisticated soirees involving clinking glasses and the American cocktail question of choice, "What do you do?"
