[spectre] Discussing ‘Playbour – Work, Pleasure, Survival’ with Dani Admiss

[marc.garrett]

Sorry for any cross posting...

Marc Garrett interviews curator Dani Admiss about how the data-driven gamification of life and everything has shaped the development of 'Playbour – Work, Pleasure, Survival' at Furtherfield, and why the Gallery is currently being transformed into a psychological environment.

Gallery visitors are presented with a series of game-like installations, which are the result of the shared and collective cognitive labour of artists, curators and gallery staff. First the artists, and then the public (as players) are invited to test the processes and experiences offered by new mechanisms of play and labour. Each ‘game’ simulates an experience of how some techniques and technologies of gamification, automation, and surveillance, are at work in our everyday lives, in order to capture all forms of existence. http://bit.ly/2uD7NZZ
