If you're in Maine this weekend, check out Games: Making and Unmaking the WorldStill Water program for network art and culture at the University of Maine, organized by Joline Blais, featuring artists Natalie Bookchin, Ruth Catlow, Mary Flanagan, Alex Galloway, John Klima, and Anne-Marie Schleiner.
This series of discussions and workshops will explore the increasing prevalence of electronic war and conflict simulation in military and entertainment contexts -- raising issues about the construction of gender in the context of gameplay and game narrative, and also provoking some discussion on issues related to the upcoming election.
