SUMMARY:Nordic Game Discovery Day 2017
DESCRIPTION:“What we will do on the Discovery Day is to attack the topic of passion from these different angles and give you a variety of takes on what it means when creating games. From the drive that keeps you going to empathy for players with less and less time at their hands\, from the pleasure that games can create in players to the persistence you need to survive as an artist\, the talks will shed a light on the passion that keeps us all going. Come join us for the first ever Nordic Game Discovery Day.” \nWe wanted to have a curatorial theme that links all presentations. It had to be a topic that allows for an artistic angle and also connects the practice of making games with the life of the creator. Starting from the word passion\, that describes why we all make games\, we went in four different directions: \n\n\nDrive – the passion that keeps you going despite the world falling apart \n\n\nFeeling – pleasure and fulfillment in games and outside \n\n\nEmpathy – having a heart in this grim world \n\n\nPersistence – making games while you have a life \n\n\n  \nDiscovery Day & Showcase: Friday\, 19 May\nCreated and curated in close cooperation with longtime partners Copenhagen Game Collective\, Nordic Game Discovery Day will be held as the last day of NG17\, namely Friday\, 19 May. Open to all NG17 conference pass holders\, stand-alone Discovery Day & Showcase tickets are available for only 59 EUR. Get yours right here! \n10:00 – 16:00: Loads of great talks\, all conference auditoriums\nThe Discovery Day program includes a strong speaker line-up with some of the most exciting names in game creation today. Session details and speakers to be announced soon. \n10:00 – 20:00: Discovery Showcase\, Dining Hall\nAt the Discovery Showcase\, developers can book a table in the Dining Hall and join the selection of great new game projects; visit the showcase to play the creations and meet the developers! Highlighting the Discovery Showcase will be the eight games nominated for the annual Sensation Award. All NG17 attendees will also be able to play the nominated games during the conference and vote for their favorite. \n12:00 – 14:00: Lunch\, Dining Hall\nA complimentary lunch is included with all NG17 conference passes. \n13:00-14:00: Discovery Contest Grand Final\nAt the grand final of Nordic Game’s debut live pitch contest\, participants will present their games to the grand final judges\, among them legendary Japanese game designer Fumito Ueda\, and before an NG17 audience. Read more about the contest here. \n15:00-16:00: NG17 Wrap-up\, including Sensation Awards\nThomas Vigild is back with his not-to-be-missed conference wrap-up show\, this year fused with a wealth of award presentations\, including announcement of the Sensation Award winner as well as Discovery Contest “Game of the Year”. \n16:00-20:00: NG17 After Hours\nNordic Game Discovery Day will end with a “chill” bang in the Dining Hall. Full of games\, fun and surprises. \n  \n  \nDiscover the new Indie Day

SUMMARY:Playful Arts Sessions #1
DESCRIPTION:Interactive Performance evening. \nPlayful Arts Sessions is an exciting evening where you can get acquainted with leading and emerging artists at the intersection of visual arts\, performing arts and playful design. Includes Dinner!\nDuring the first Playful Arts Sessions we dive into the work of artist duos The100Hands (NL)  and Louise Orwin & Eugenie Pastor (UK)\, who both playfully experiment with the relation between the artist and their audience. How far will we go in setting up and act in interactive experiences?\n\nDuring the first half of the evening we meet in a playful way during two performances and a tasteful dinner. During the second half of the evening we will speak with the artists under the guidance of expert moderator Jochem Naafs.\n\nTimetable: \n17.00  Doors open\n17.15   Start program\n17.30  The Loneliness of Crowds – Louise Orwin & Eugénie Pastor\n19.45  Dinner @ Hangop\n20.00 25Feet – the 100Hands\n21.15   Aftertalk with the artists and moderator Jochem Naafs \nTickets*: \n25 Euros: Two performances + dinner\n20 Euros: Two Performances + dinner ( = Early Bird until 18 May) \n*Tickets are for the whole evening including dinner. \n\nInteractive Performances:\nThe Loneliness of Crowds\nby Eugénie Pastor and Louise Orwin\n \nThe Loneliness of Crowds is an immersive experience for 1-2 blindfolded participants. During 10 minutes\, you will be involved in being in a festival environment. Complete with karaoke\, crowdsurfing\, shelter for rain and dancing. Afterwards you will give the same care to other participants. \n25Feet\nby The100Hands\nAt a distance of 25 feet (7.3m) and further people interact among each other mainly as viewers and performers. By placing the audience together with two performers in a square of 25ft2\, everyone – willingly or not – enters each others ‘social space’. From there begins the journey closer and closer\, into ‘personal’ and ‘intimate space’: areas where the most violent and intimate physical interactions happen. \n25 Feet is a sober\, effectively designed\, interactive dance performance about physical proximity and the dynamics between violence and intimacy\, that both happen on closest distance. \nThe Artists:\n\nThe100Hands:\nThe100Hands create interactive dance performances\, mostly site specific\, now and then staged in theaters.\nSince 2014 Jasper Džuki Jelen (NL/SI) and Mojra Vogelnik Škerlj (SI) combine their backgrounds in contemporary dance and architecture to create works that strongly relate to space. The movement vocabulary of this duo sources from partnering and martial arts and fuels an interest in the social\, interactive potential of physical performance formats.\nThe work of The100Hands is presented in many international festivals and is produced in Belgium\, Sweden\, Denmark and Egypt. Its human and physical approach speaks to a wide audience of all ages.\nhttps://the100hands.com/\n\nLouise Orwin (UK) is a live art artist\, researcher\, writer and performer. She has performed her work at various stages and festivals in the UK and beyond. Her work is characterized by brutality\, personal vulnerability and the involvement of the public in intimate experiences. In her work she focuses on the accidental encounter with a stranger. She plays with stereotypical views of the female in popular culture versus her own awkwardness. In her work practice\, she mixes the theatrical with everyday and interrogates the interaction between the creator and her audience.\nHttp://louiseorwin.com/ \nEugénie Pastor (UK) is an artist\, performer\, musician and theatre-maker\, based in London and originally from France. She’s an Associate Artist at Little Bulb Theatre since 2009 and co-devised and performed in many of the company’s award-winning shows\, including: Orpheus\, Squally Showers\, Operation Greenfield\, Sporadical\, and most of Little Bulb’s cabaret and band incarnations. \nShe’s also a freelance performer and theatre-maker\, and has collaborated with Tom Penn\, Edith Tankus\, Glen Neath and David Rosenberg\, and new circus companies Barely Methodical and Camille Boitel / L’Immédiat. Her work has been shown at Battersea Arts Centre\, Soho Theatre\, The Shed / National Theatre\, Salzburg Festival\, West Yorkshire Playhouse\, Millenium Centre Cardiff\, Bristol Old Vic\, Latitude and Wilderness Festivals\, among others.\nhttp://www.eugeniepastor.co.uk/ \nThe Moderator:\nJochem Naafs holds an MA in both New Media Studies and Theatre Studies. He is a lecturer\, researcher\, dramaturg and live artist based in Utrecht. As a lecturer he is affiliated to ArtEZ Bachelor of Dance and HKU Theatre.

To participate\, contact the games curator at shalev.email@gmail.com \nPrint Screen is Israel’s International Digital Arts and Culture Festival.

The festival will expose artists that are engaging with the groundbreaking scientific practices and themes of gene-engineering\, adaptive systems\, collective behavior\, biomimicry\, artificial intelligence\, robotics and artificial life\, and whose artworks raise questions on ecology\, humanism/post-humanism\, and non-human subjectivity.”

SUMMARY:Making the City Playable 2017
DESCRIPTION:From the website: \nAll over the world\, play is being embraced as an antidote to the anonymity of the urban environment. This one day conference will explore the theme of the Playable City and how public space\, creativity and imagination combines to create unexpected interactions and a new kind of dialogue. \nWe have gathered together an international mix of artists\, academics\, policy makers and producers to speak about their transformative work in cities from Montreal to Mexico City\, Lagos to Copenhagen. They will explore the social and cultural issues that play is helping them to address\, the challenges of making playful projects a reality and who feels welcome/able to access public space. \nOur programme will feature opportunities for networking\, debate and discussion\, as well as bespoke Playable City experiences in interesting locations throughout the centre of the city. These activities will be designed exclusively for our delegates by the talented cohort joining us on Creative Producers International\, Watershed’s new global talent development programme. Attendees will also get a sneak peek at the prototypes of upcoming Playable City commissions from Hirsch and Mann and Guerrilla Dance Project. Join in on the process and give us your feedback. \nConfirmed speakers include: \n\nMiguel Sicart\, Play scholar\nPascale Daigle\, Programme Director of Montreal’s Quartier des Spectacles\nDaniel Hirschmann\, Founder of Hirsch and Mann\, Watershed’s current Playable City Award winners\nErin Walsh\, Head of City Strategies at Future Cities Catapult\nStuart Nolan\, Research magician\nInua Ellams\, Founder of Midnight Run\nJen Stein\, UWE Professor of Design Futures\nHere’s more information on the sessions: \n\n\n\nSession One: Who Can Play?\n\n\n\nSpeakers: Clare Reddington\, Miguel Sicart\, Stuart Nolan\, Erin Walsh \nProjects invoking play are more popular than ever before and are taking place all over the world. As the form matures\, this session will interrogate the current state of play and ask questions about how play is perceived\, what it means for human behaviour\, and who playful interactions are designed for. \n\n\n\nSession Two: How We Play\n\n\n\nSpeakers: Hilary O’Shaughnessy\, Daniel Hirschmann\, Pascale Daigle\, Inua Ellams\, Jen Stein \nWe have seen a global movement of playful city interventions which fuse art\, technology and urban innovation to engage with citizens and reclaim public space. An international mix of artists\, producers\, academics and policy makers will come together to share some practical insights from their work\, and the discuss the environmental and cultural concerns they must address in very different places. \n\n\n\nSession Three: Let’s Play\n\n\n\nSpeakers/leaders: the Creative Producers International cohort \nDelegates will meet the fifteen city change makers from our new global talent development programme Creative Producers International\, as they participate in a series of playful interventions across the city. Our Creative Producers will design these activities exclusively for our conference during a residential lab here at Watershed\, and they will explore issues important to their own practice and cities. \n\n\n\nSession Four: Where We Play\n\n\n\nSpeakers: Claire Doherty\, Clorinda Romo\, Olamide Udoma-Ejorh\, Seiichi Saito \nAcross the world\, including here in Bristol\, activism is on the rise. We will examine the relationship between play and activism\, and how those creating playful interventions are responding to an increasingly political environment in which public space feels contested. Practitioners from Mexico\, Nigeria and the UK will discuss their experiences of play as activism\, and the lessons that can be shared internationally. \nWe will provide BSL and live captioning to accompany our all conference speakers. To ensure all participants experience a fully playful afternoon please let us know about any access requirements\, using the typeform link included in your booking confirmation. \nAny questions?

SUMMARY:Playful Arts Sessions: Wanderlust
DESCRIPTION:Prepare yourself for a journey through the city by night and let your intuition be your guide.\nPlayful Arts Sessions is an exciting evening where you can get acquainted with leading and emerging artists at the intersection of visual arts\, performing arts and playful design.\n13 December 7PM-10.30PM: Two playful urban explorations with international artists Aïda Gomez\, Thom Kiraly and Sebastian Quack + aftertalk led by Michiel van de Weerthof (Soundtreks – Weerthof & Pagée).\n\nDrift Club\nThom Kiraly and Sebastian Quack will take you on a drift\, a playful way to collaboratively explore urban landscapes on foot and take a break from everyday life. Sometimes we move slow\, sometimes we move fast. The aim is to create a deep\, shared experience of exploration and discovery.\nGuy Debord\, founder of the Situationistische Internationale\, introduced the drifting idea in 1956 and has inspired many artists since. Kiraly en Quack have been drifting through cities all over Europe\, in all types of weather and all times of day. \nDrift Club website: http://driftclub.cc \nUrban Exploration\nThe second urban exploration will be guided by Aïda Gómez. Working with language games\, crossword puzzles and the playful replacement of social codes in our everyday environment\, Aïda Gómez finds a way of capturing and challenging the view of passersby\, turning them into playfellows in her self-appointed playgrounds in the streets of Madrid and Berlin. By placing posters with word search games on billboards\, weaving hearts into fences or playing Tetris with missing pieces in a subway station panelling\, the artist uses simple yet subversive techniques and what she calls non-violent materials to reveal hidden treasures. \nPROGRAM\n19.00 Doors open\n19.15 Drift Club – Thom Kiraly en Sebastian Quack*\n20.30 Urban exploration – Aïda Gomez*\n21.45 Conversations with the artists & the audience led by moderator Michiel van de Weerthof\n22.30 End \n* we start at Willem Twee but cannot know the exact location after that.
