Publishing wie bei arte geht wohl nicht (www.arte.tv/digitalprodu...), aber bei Spielbesprechungen soll wohl noch mehr kommen. Denn es gibt so viele tolle #arthouseGames mit spannenden Perspektiven auf alltägliche Themen - genau diese Kontextualisierung im Kosmos ihrer Formate wäre wünschenswert.
Next week at “ON SCREEN” at re:publica our panel called: "Arthouse Games - Playing The Real World Narratives."
📆 May 27 - 16:15-17:15 - Moderated by Lara Keilbert with panelists Natasha Sebben, Moshe Linke, Adrien Larouzée.
