GAMERS unite!

Dan & I are going to this next weekend:



PROGRAM 14: GAME ENGINE 2: OUT IN THE WORLD

As video games continue to emerge into and energize mainstream culture, the stereotype of the gamer as a basement-dwelling shut-in is giving way to a new appreciation of the extraordinary talents of the teeming hordes playing games and working in the game industry. Co-organized by Taeko Baba of New York-Tokyo, this program of screenings, commentary, and live appearances will introduce the audience to the work and play of a variety of gaming amateurs and professionals-each with his or her very own brilliance, slyness, or breathtaking savantism. A special Gamers Night Groove after-party will follow at the Tribeca Grand Hotel (over-21 only). Sun July 18: 9



It's part of the NY Video Festival.
