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.

Im diesjährigen Weihnachtsworkshop in Wels wurden, gemeinsam mit Schülern des MRG Fadingerstraße Linz, die Grundlagen der Open-Source 3D Modelliersoftware Blender behandelt und fliegende Inseln für das Spiel 'Fragment Planet' modelliert, sowie texturiert.
'Fragment Planet' ist ein Echtzeitstrategiespiel von Simon Stix, in dem die Erde auf der Suche nach einer neuen Energiequelle vernichtet wurde. Die Überlebenden der Katastrophe bewegen sich mithilfe von Fluggeräten zwischen Fragmenten der alten Welt und bauen auf ihnen trostlose Städte und Militärbasen. Der Stil des Spiels ist eine Mischung aus Steam- und Cyberpunk und es verbindet die Elemente klassischer Strategiespiele, mit frei beweglichen, fliegenden Inseln, wodurch ein einzigartig dynamisches Gameplay entsteht.

MARINA ROSSI
THE IMPACT OF CURATION
The practice of organising an event transcends the pragmatic aspect of coordinating a team: you are building a new space, and every decision you make should mirror your values. This talk will cover the five-year experience in curating Game Happens, an international festival which proudly presents itself with a manifest and a code of conduct; we need to take full responsibility about the meaning of the artefacts we produce and highlight as creators and curators. In a world fascinated with clicks, likes, and views, we need to focus on the impact of our work.
Marina Rossi is a curator, designer, content creator and producer. She is co-founder and event director at Game Happens, a nonprofit cultural association based in Genoa, Italy focusing on the cultural, social, and artistic impact of games. She is also co-founder at Contralto game collective. With a Master Degree in ITC, she has been part of the game industry since 2009.
