GAME 040 - Resistance Games

How do games persuade? Could they start a revolution? What is countergaming? When is a mod not just a mod? These are some of the questions we will consider in this course about the influence of critical, speculative, radical, and punk art and design in interactive media practices.

Discussions of the works of historic and contemporary independent, experimental, and political artists and game developers will be accompanied by readings that contextualize these works in terms of tactical/radical media, the role of games and play in society, and the fundamental persuasive potential of interactive media.

Students have opportunities to produce their own interactive media projects and/or to produce their own analyses of existing works.
