OtherPlace 2014
August 18, 2014 @ 3:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Otherplace is an experimental game and play event in Malmö, Sweden.
From the website:
Otherplace explores the boundaries between fiction and reality, the playful and the serious. Games have the ability to engage us in conceptual worlds that exist in parallell, and at times seem to expand beyond reality. Play can disrupt our every day activities, offer us alternatives to the filters with which we comprehend our realities and let us see old places in a new light. The goal with the event is to allow the local creative activities be mirrored out in the streets, and to have Malmö citizens take space in the public room.
The event is centered around the gallery at Industrigatan 20, and will be active between 15 and 20. Participation is free, and even if the main target group is young adults, all ages are of course welcome!
At the event you will be able to experience urban play in the old industrial area, participate in experimental and playful interaction in the gallery, create simple games and controls in the DIY spot, enjoy illustrated art and play games centered around food, to mentioned some of the activities.
