Game Design Workshop for Middle Schoolers
Saturday, February 7, 2015
5th Ave at 89th Street
New York City
This Game Design Workshop for children ages 11–14 was a free one-day workshop with a Guggenheim educator and a video game industry professional that investigated game design principles and architectural concepts. Just as architect Frank Lloyd Wright was challenged to create a dynamic visitor experience in his design for the Guggenheim, participants explored how to create fun experiences for players through hands-on and digital projects. Created in collaboration with the 2014–2015 STEM Challenge, The Institute of Museum and Library Services, The Joan Ganz Cooney Center, and E-Line Media.

Playful is a one-day event all about games and play – in all their manifestations, throughout the contemporary media landscape. It’s a conference for architects, artists, designers, developers, geeks, gurus, gamers, tinkerers, thinkerers, bloggers, joggers, and philosophers. We look at what PLAY means both creatively and culturally, and put speakers on the stage who offer different perspectives on where we are currently, where we’ve been, and where we’re going. We want people walking away talking about the nature of games…what they mean to different people inside, on the periphery, outside or miles away from the industry.
Game Design Expo 2012’s sold-out Industry Speaker Day on January 21 attracted industry professionals and aspiring game designers.

PLAYING POLITICS: HEADSHOT!
In this talk, media artist and activist 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 video game.
Joseph DeLappe is Professor of Games and Tactical Media at Abertay University in Dundee, Scotland. Works in online gaming performance, public engagements, participatory sculpture and electromechanical installation have been shown throughout the United States and internationally. He has developed works for venues such as Eyebeam Art and Technology in New York, The Guangdong Museum of Art, China and Transitio MX, Mexico City, among others. Creative works and actions have been featured widely in scholarly journals, books and in the popular media. In 2016 he collaborated with the Biome Collective in Dundee to create Killbox, a game about drone warfare that was nominated in 2017 for a BAFTA Scotland in the “Best Computer Game” category. In 2017 he was awarded Guggenheim Fellowship in the Fine Arts, one of the top awards for artists, writers and creatives in the United States.
POLITICA IN GIOCO: HEADSHOT!
In questo intervento, il media artist e attivista Joseph DeLappe illustra progetti, interventi e azioni creative che si collocano all’intersezione tra videogioco, arte, tecnologia e ideologia in differenti contesti geopolitici. DeLappe considera i videogiochi online una nuova tipologia di spazio pubblico, un palcoscenico virtuale nel quale dare vita a performance di ogni tipo. Gli interventi di DeLappe includono 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.
Joseph DeLappe è Professor of Games and Tactical Media presso l’Abertay University di Dundee, Scozia. La sua pratica privilegia le performance di gioco online e in pubblico, la scultura partecipativa e le installazioni elettromeccaniche sono state esposte negli Stati Uniti e a livello internazionale. Ha creato installazioni site-specific per Eyebeam Art and Technology a New York, The Guangdong Museum of Art, Cina e Transitio MX, a Città del Messico, tra gli altri. Le sue opere e performance sono state citate su riviste accademiche, libri e mass media. Nel 2016 ha collaborato con il Biome Collective di Dundee per creare Killbox, un videogioco che tematizza l’uso dei droni finalista dei premi BAFTA 2017 nella categoria Best Computer Game. Nel 2017 ha ottenuto la Guggenheim Fellowship in the Fine Arts, uno dei riconoscimenti più prestigiosi per artisti, scrittori e creativi negli Stati Uniti.
Following the typical path of the Gartner hype cycle, in early 2012 gamification was somewhere just past the peak of inflated expectations.

Archiving my very 1st teenage steps with the Atari 800XL in the form of a folder full of code, sketches & references (all created between 1988-1991)... I started with writing pure hex code, then taught myself the 6502 flavour of Assembler (only learned Z80 before) but then got more & more into game design, icons & demo scene activities (as coder, gfx and chiptunes & co-organizer) and started building several tools & games (incl. The Brundles, a commercial Lemmings clone for the 8-bit Atari in '93)
A bunch of game designers brought their prototypes to the Hubbub studio for testing and critique. It turned out to be both fun and useful. We might do it again.
