Tanner and I went to an indie videogame panel discussion last night at the New Museum. It was hosted by Rhizome. The panel was very well done since the game makers on the panel had different skill levels and background. The most interesting discussion of the evening was a continuation of the videogames as art discourse. Roger Ebert was mentioned several times, since he had mentioned once that video games could not be art. Funny note, but the last time I was at a panel discussion was in Boulder when Ebert made that comment.
Here is a link to the Ebert discussion
And here is one to the Rizome “Next Level” event.
