Generally, we know games to be entertaining and challenging, but in truth they can also carry restrictive or stigmatising messages. Playing Architecture is curated by Mélanie van der Hoorn, a cultural anthropologist, and designed by Dafne Wiegers (AHH), architect. The exhibition invites you to play, wonder and critically reflect on the nature and role of architecture games, with a wide array of Amsterdam-related examples.
The exhibition will be on display at Arcam from December 10 until May 28, 2023.
December 10 (Saturday) - May 28 (Sunday)

How do you acquire new projects, funding and players in and out of the video game industry? Ellis Bartholomeus and Michiel Sala have learned
How do you acquire new projects, funding and players in and out of the video game industry? Ellis Bartholomeus and Michiel Sala have learned the ropes in the last two decennia. They will discuss the ups and downs of working with clients, stakeholders and end-users. Or in Michiel’s words: developing stuff for 100 euros an hour is the worst way to build a sustainable business. Why do money-makers develop nothing, and why don’t developers make money? That’s the discussion for this evening.

This talk will preview a forthcoming academic book that discusses why games are not mainstream and how game journalism can help them gain cultural credibility.
First, both the history and current practices of game journalists will be discussed, along with the roles writers and industry play in conveying that the medium is a “mainstream” form of entertainment. Second, the bumpy process of what we think of as “mainstreaming” will be unpacked. Ultimately, we will grapple with two provocative questions: will games ever gain widespread cultural acceptance, and should they even?
Hosted by David B. Nieborg, an Associate Professor of Media Studies at the University of Toronto and a Visiting Professor (’22-’23) at the University of Amsterdam.
