EVENT: GAME TALK #3: JOSEPH DELAPPE (MARCH 27 2019)

GET READY FOR JOSEPH DELAPPE’S TALK ABOUT THE POLITICS OF GAMES AND THE GAMES OF POLITICS!

Tomorrow, Wednesday March 27, media artist and professor Joseph DeLappe will describe a lineage of creative projects and actions situated at the intersections of computer gaming, art/technology, and interventionist strategies engaging our geopolitical contexts. DeLappe will detail an approach to considering computer gaming environments online as a new type of public space; within which he has conducted a series of interventionist performances and actions, such as the 2006 project dead‐in‐iraq, to type consecutively, all names of America's military casualties from the war in Iraq into the America's Army first-person shooter online recruiting game. More recent projects include Elegy: GTA USA Gun Homicides (2018), a self-playing mod as a data visualizer of gun homicides in the United States as realized through this popular videogame.

Domani, 27 marzo, l’artista e professore Joseph DeLappe descriverà progetti, interventi e azioni creative che si collocano all’intersezione tra videogioco, arte, tecnologia e politica in differenti contesti geopolitici. Secondo DeLappe, i videogiochi online rappresentano una nuova tipologia di spazio pubblico, un palcoscenico virtuale nel quale dare vita a performance di ogni tipo, tra cui dead-in-iraq (2006), che prevedeva l’inserimento via chat dei nomi delle vittime militari statunitensi della guerra in Iraq nel videogioco di reclutamento online America’s Army fino al recentissimo Elegy: GTA USA Gun Homicides (2018), una modifica del popolare action game di Rockstar Games, Grand Theft Auto V, che visualizza in tempo reale le statistiche sugli omicidi da arma da fuoco negli Stati Uniti.

L’ingresso è gratuito, ma la registrazione necessaria.
