On Wednesday we’ll play a game called “The Thing From the Future” produced by Situation Lab, a group of game designers and tactical media practitioners. Here’s another of their projects: Nature Pod. Check it out, and keep in mind that tactical media are often artistic interventions meant to draw our attention to deeper ideological structures– they arn’t really “products” or “art” in a typical sense. Had we kept our day on tactical media (sorry Rita Raley, author of Tactical Media— which y’all should read), we’d have talked a bit more about it. But suffice it to say it’s weird– and facsinating.
