Half of the exhibition area is dedicated to digital archeology, which includes the typewriter like Apple computer as well as large format synthesizer, Ataris and Pacman arcade machine – which is a lot of fun, because under eighties soundtracks played almost anything on consoles and computers and be heard. The film then occupies a comparatively small role in terms of area: “Inception” and “Gravity” are cited as prime examples of digital production possibilities, here too it is even possible to try out how the worlds arise. Here are some more film clips and video works that sometimes reach their limits.
Effects Instead Of Ideas
Good stories are also being told in the gaming world, digital offers are changing production conditions, and much is becoming more permeable.
