'deSingel Gamezone' is a three-day multimedia festival where you can examine the world of games and interactive art from all possible angles. Worldwide, games have become part of our digital life. We look past the hype and treat gaming as a cultural phenomenon, with - just as in films and cartoons - exciting, boring, (un)interesting or innovative productions.
The hype of the past few years has spawned a new culture with a dynamic of its own. Gaming has left the realm of the classic games studio. Artists, academics and museums all game now. That's why, in the third 'Gamezone deSingel', we'll be looking in greater depth at alternative games, independent developers, educational perspectives and the history of recent games that have taken the world by storm.
For two days and evenings you will discover the very latest devices, sports games, films about games, talks about special effects and controversy, heritage games and games as heritage, a World of Warcraft museum, evening specials, performances by famous game musicians, etc.
