SUMMARY:Feral Vector 2016
DESCRIPTION:Feral Vector is a festival about making games and gamelike things. \nFeral Vector has workshops\, talks\, interviews\, live games\, Q&As\, performances\, walks\, and other things. It’s centred on the subject of game design\, its wider cultural influences\, the places people think it should go next\, and the neglected\, ignored places it’s already been. \nThis is not like other game design events. We avoid conference venues. There are usually multiple things going on at once\, in different rooms. Any presenters we have are invited to do whatever they want\, and that doesn’t have to be a talk if that’s not their kind of thing. It’s primarily about design\, and accessible to non-developers. \nWebsite: http://feral-vector.com/

SUMMARY:Parallels: The Freeplay 2015 Showcase
DESCRIPTION:Game showcase \nhttp://www.acmi.net.au/live-events/talks-performances/parallels-the-freeplay-2015-showcase/ \n\n\n\n\n\nFrom the artsy\, to the weird\, to the provocative\, to the punk. For over ten years\, the Freeplay Independent Games Festival has been exploring these vital margins of game culture in Australia\, from bedroom coders and artists exploring the possibilities of games\, to game culture’s punk rockers and agitators. \nReturning after the sold-out 2014 show\, in Parallels: The Freeplay 2015 Showcase\, ACMI and Freeplay are bringing Australia’s most exciting under-the-radar games projects and creators together to showcase game culture’s parallel worlds. \nWatch as local designers demonstrate and play their creations live on stage and discuss their influences and creative passions. Discover new games and game makers\, and find out what makes them tick. Join us on a journey to reveal the artistry and talent of Australia’s independent and grassroots game makers.
