Freeplay 2012
“Freeplay is Australia’s longest running independent games festival exploring the intersection of indie development, culture, arts and education.”
From the website:
As games emerge as the dominant art-form of the 21st century, Freeplay is committed to exploring the creative and artistic opportunities of the form, showcasing the best of local indie development to the world, critiquing and analysing the surrounding creative culture, bringing the world’s best developers to Melbourne, and reframing and re-presenting videogames outside of their usual environments.
The 2012 Festival is scheduled to run from September 19-23, with the theme of Chaos and Grace. Growing once again, Freeplay 2012 includes the return of the Conference Program, Arcade and Expo, Playful events, and the introduction of a dedicated developer program in partnership with ACMI and Artist Workshops with support from Arts Victoria. In addition, Freeplay worked with ACMI to curate monthly Re:Play events during the Game Masters exhibition.
The program consists of the following parts:
