SUMMARY:Up Up Down Down Left Right Left Right B A Start
DESCRIPTION:Video Games as Performance Art \n\nFrom the website: \nSPACES hosts an unusual exhibition of performance art-featuring works that use the framework of video games to create performances. These works vary from interactive long-distance performances that are directed by viewers/players\, to video art created by documenting video game performances\, indie video games that invite players to perform within the presented framework\, and classic video games that highlight the performative nature of this interactive art form. \nPerformance art often centers around the artist’s body improvising within parameters or working through a set of directions. Video games set the stage for a dual performance of the player’s subtle physical dance of fingers across a controller and the virtual movements of pixel bodies. In Dana Sperry’s video First Person Shooter\, a player’s face is illuminated only by the pulsating glow of a first person shooter video game. Her eyes dart back and forth and her face slightly twists as the game becomes more difficult. This is a documented micro-performance choreographed by the action on the screen. \nWafaa Bilal’s contribution is a documentation of a performance that took place in Chicago’s FlatFile Galleries in 2007. Domestic Tension\, had Bilal\, an Iraqi\, living in the gallery for one month\, while a mounted paintball gun was controlled by users via the internet. Bilal and the gallery were pelted by yellow paintballs over the course of the month as people took the opportunity to shoot an Iraqi. \nPippin Barr’s quirky internet-based games use the form of video games to critique both gaming culture and the art world. In The Artist is Present\, named after the noted Marina Abramović at the Museum of Modern Art (2010)\, the player arrives at MoMA to attend the exhibition. After waiting in line for a ticket\, the player then joins an interminable queue to get the opportunity to sit with the pixilated Abramović. Rather than a game of action\, it is a game of patience that points toward the performances and frameworks that surround the art. \nVisitors to Up Up Down Down Left Right Left Right B A Start will have the opportunity to act out their own performances through artist-created games and arcade classics through July 19\, 2013. \nNote: “Up Up Down Down Left Right Left Right B A Start\,” also known as the “Konami Code\,” is a cheat code for some video games that allows players to immediately gain hundreds of lives or unlock “easter eggs”-special surprises or hidden game modes. \nArtists: \n\nPippin Barr\nWafaa Bilal\nMary Flanagan\nKnut Hybinette\nPaolo Pedercini\nTroy Richards\nDana Sperry

SUMMARY:Twofivesix
DESCRIPTION:“Twofivesix is a one-day conference devoted to the spaces between games\, play\, interaction and creativity. Targeting game designers\, digital creatives\, and platform builders\, our conference aims to show what games can teach other industries and what other industries can teach games.” \n\n \nFrom the website: \n“When we started Kill Screen\, we wanted to show the world why games matter. We think an integral part of this story lies at the intersection between videogames and the rest of the world. Games are a lens to view life in a new and fantastic way. We believe games have a lot to teach culture and culture has a lot to teach games. \nWe’ve worked with game designers in the past\, but we thought\, what better way to nurture cross-pollination than to bring some of the brightest gaming minds and sharpest folks from outside games into the same room? \nNew York City is becoming one of the most exciting game scenes on the planet. We are already seeing the influence of the city’s vibrant arts\, design\, music and tech communities brought to bear on some amazing videogame projects\, and we’re happy to call Brooklyn our home. Twofivesix will bring together some of the best and brightest who share this ethos to discuss the future of games.” \nKeynote Speakers: \n\nTim Schafer (Founder\, Double Fine Productions)\,\nDan Connors (CEO\, Telltale Games)\,\nRod Humble (CEO\, Linden Lab)\n\nSpeakers:\n\n\nYancey Strickler (Co-founder\, Kickstarter)\,\nPaola Antonelli (Senior Curator\, Architecture + Design\, MoMA)\,\nDennis Crowley (Co-founder\, Fourquare)\,\nZach Klein (Co-founder\, Vimeo)\,\nRobin Hunicke (Executive Producer\, Journey\, Flower)\nDavid Merrill (Co-founder\, Sifteo)\,\nPalmer Lucky (Creator\, Occulus Rift)\nNicholas Felton (Lead designer\, Facebook)\nMatt Boch (Project Director\, Dance Central 3)\nChristopher Paretti (Head of design\, GREE)\nMike Sespo (Co-founder\, Major League Gaming)\nJeffrey Yohalem (Lead writer\, Far Cry 3)\nAndy Hunter (Publisher\, Electric Literature)\nChris Poole (Founder\, DrawQuest / 4chan)\nJeffrey Lin (Lead designer (Social Systems)\, Riot Games)\nConstance Steinkuehler (Senior Policy Analyst\, Office of Science + Technology Policy\, White House)\nBill Squadrion (President\, Bloomberg Sports)\n\n\nVIDEO:

Stubnitz will also be hosting The Apocalypse Gameshow and The Wild Rumpus. Get your tickets for Bit of Alright here. \nIf you’d like to propose a session\, talk about press passes\, ask if we’re interested in your game / performance / sculpture / art project\, or anything else\, get in touch with us:\nhello@bit-of-alright.com.
