For the upcoming PuSh Festival in January of 2024, artists Patrick Blenkarn and Milton Lim are presenting asses.masses, a custom-made video game that deals with issues of labour, technophobia and political turmoil. To complement this PuSh show, VPL is hosting a game-a-thon with the artists!
Attendees will spend a Sunday afternoon with the artists, learning the basics of game design, and working in groups to create concepts for provocative games with political potential.
There are no technical requirements nor previous knowledge required to participate. We will be generating ideas together and playing out early prototypes with analogue tools like pen, paper, and our collective creativity.
This is a free event, but registration is required to attend.
