SUMMARY:The Overkill 2024
DESCRIPTION:The Overkill is the playful festival celebrating indie and arthouse games\, interactive arts and alternative films within a cultural and social context. Interdisciplinary\, experimental and international\, The Overkill presents and welcomes game makers\, digital creators and playful artists from all over the world. Following a theme\, the festival tells a story\, connecting one piece to another and inviting visitors to engage into multiple worlds. \nThe festival explores its theme through the multiple voices of the artists presented and creates a space for the public to react and engage with one another. The festival presents immersive and interactive exhibitions\, film screenings\, a selection of workshops and talks and live performances. The festival is a space to play\, meet\, experience\, share and collaborate. \nThe Overkill 2024 is curated by Marie Janin and Aike Lütkemöller from Sickhouse alongside playful curator Zuraida Buter and artist researcher Erik Peters. \nTheme 2024: \nRadical Joy Resistance \nTriggered by a feeling of powerlessness in a world that seems wrapped in violence\, The Overkill festival is looking into the role of play within activism\, the place joy can take in times of great crisis and the power of pleasure in movement of resistance. The festival is wondering what are the (digital) tools\, the (virtual) places\, the encounters\, the (online) gatherings we can create to give each other courage and build new lines of defence. The program will create room for the voices that we don’t hear\, open its space for listening\, to speak up\, to share and try together.\nThe Overkill invites playful artists to engage with us in the troubles and help us activate disruptive movements\, may it be small\, loud\, temporary or transformative. \n—- \nThe Overkill festival takes place over several locations : \nPerformance factory\, Hall Zuid : Hoge Bothofstraat 39F\, 7511 ZA Enschede\nBlackBrick : Hoge Bothofstraat 31F\, 7511ZA Enschede (not yet on google maps)\nConcordia : Langestraat 56\, 7511 HC Enschede(film program of Friday and Saturday)\nVestzak theater : Walstraat 35\, 7511 GG Enschede(Playful Friday) \nWednesday 20 : Secret Gathering (on invite\, for participants and volunteers only)\nThursday 21 : Expo open + Official opening\nFriday 22 : Expo + Playful Friday with talks and workshops for students & professionals\nSaturday & Sunday 23 & 24 : Expo + activities for everyone \nProgram: \nExpo: \n\nFrom the Main Square – Pedro Harris\nNew Suns – Antigoni Tsagkaropoulou\nBetween – Claire Kwong\nDance Poem Revolution – Melanie Hoff\nharri kanta – Juliette Lizotte\nJoystick – Madison Bycroft\nMbombo: Dream Echoes – Sondi\nViolent Violins exposed – Babak Ahteshamipour\nClaiming Space – Questions Collective\nCasual Games for Protesters – Molleindustria & Harry Josephine Giles\nMarch Together – Simona Marioano\nPerfect World – Michael Overton Brown\nThe Bride Who Could Not Stop Crying – Afrah Shafiq\nThe New York Times Simulator – Molleindustria\nUm Al-Zaytoun – Rafif Kalantan & Ashraf Abi Said\nStatera – Randy Querreveld\, Rick van Leeuwen and Denis Dvorkovyy\nAtuel – Matajuegos\nAnarquia – Alberto Rico – presented by Jugar Juegitos and Resistència Videolúdica\nGay Boy – Paramo.Yermo – presented by Jugar Juegitos and Resistència Videolúdica\nOjancanu –  Dobra Studios – presented by Jugar Juegitos and Resistència Videolúdica\nTo all the rocks that raised me – Carlos Cortés García – presented by Jugar Juegitos and Resistència Videolúdica\nSplit your dirty adventure – Ronia – presented by Jugar Juegitos and Resistència Videolúdica\n\nWorkshops: \n\nConsensual Hacking – Melanie Hoff\nPlaying with the Master’s tool – Noam Yongrak Son\nWindwerk (Wind Works) – Question Collective\nLarping and Player Agency – Jana Romanova\nPlaying Protest Games – Jana Romanova\nZine Creating Session – Nathalie Lawhead\nSickfem\, Having Fun with Synthesizers – Jack Noise\n\nEvents / Performances \n\nOpening: March of Resistance\nResistance or the vindication of a collective right –  LASTESIS\nPulse Friction – RADVLAD\nPlayful Friday Curated by Zuraida Buter – see line-up here.\nUnfolding\, intergalactic yoga – Anne Fehres and Luke Conroy\n\n  \nOpening: \nThis year\, the start of The Overkill is a Happening\, a party\, a manifestation! through movement\, we take over the public space in a playful intervention.\nInspired by silly walks\, street raves\, children games & playful actions.
