The aesthetics of video games are rerouted to create works of art, music, and cinema that subvert game mechanics and the experience of play. Game artist and machinima maker Chris Burke curates a showcase of artists who are using games beyond their intended purpose, as tools for making art. The exhibited works explore the finite, or “knowable,” potential of the programmed game environment.

With artwork from Alex Myers, Notendo, Rosa Menckman, Kieran Nolan, Luis Hernandez, Victor Morales, Kent Sheely, Jim Munroe, and Tom7

Performances by Tamara Yadao and Skot Deeming
