Space Invaders : Art and the Computer Game Environment

17 Dec 2009-21 Feb 2010

Overview

Space Invaders: Art and the Computer Game Environment explores the increasingly blurred boundaries between videogame spaces and real spaces. It features artists using games as a medium and subject (Blast Theory, Aram Bartholl, Bill Viola, Cao Fei, Ludic Society and more) alongside playable, commercial games that push the limits of the medium. Space Invaders is part of a season of gaming at FACT. The season includes interactive games events, competitions and a game-themed film programme.
