@echtzeitkultur.org celebrates code as a living craft, where algorithms groove like well-oiled gears and demos echo the Swiss Castles Day’s theme of craftsmanship.

👉 October 5th, 4-5.30pm, Castel Grande, #Bellinzona.

To narrow it down: I mean especially texts written by political scientists.

Eugen Pfister 🇪🇺 @eugenpfister.bsky.social · Aug 6

I would be grateful for your help! I agreed to write an overview of political studies in digital games for the @akgwds.bsky.social. Apart from usual suspects (Bevc and Sicart), I find extremely little. Which (of your) texts do you think I should definitely consider? #GameStudies #PoliticalStudie

An important aspect of the #demoscene has always been collaboration, and here you can find the right people to set your hard work into a worthy light:
