hacking game machines

games are a defining medium of our time. the majority of them is 
produced by multinational corporations, designed to appeal to the 
mass audience, locked on drm-protected and region-coded data media, 
and sold, shrink-wrapped in plastic. yet resourceful hackers and 
artists are working on the liberation of this medium. serious games, 
homebrew games, and game art are results of their great efforts. 
martin pichlmair and his guests will present a number of game machine 
hacks - from a modified pinball machine dating back to the 70s to 
musical instruments running on the nintendo ds. let's crack open the 
game machine a bit further.
