Blurb for Late at the Tate Closed Fri 8 Dec 2017 7:11PM

Here's the rough blurb for the Tate, let me know if you'd like to add anything else:

The project explores the role of human agency through virtual reality and gaming. We set out to look at the difference between the psychology and agency involved in day to day interactions versus those in virtual reality and gaming. Individuals seek out friendships (virtual ones or avatar relationships) dependencies (such as through virtual pets) through gaming and also use gaming as a platform to test out strategy and potential of sabotage. From a psychological perspective, the interest in human agency is huge - there are whole channels dedicated to watching people play games, new languages develop that are inaccessible to people not involved in the game. For Late at the Tate we want to create a game involving the audience which puts them in control of the people on the stage where they control on some level their responses and interactions. This is an experimental forum designed to test out the differences in responsibility that audiences assume when they act out their desires through someone else. Will their decision making process alter when they can control someone else's actions? Will the outcomes change depending on the mood/age of the audience involved? The aim of the session is also to invite tech savvy individuals to get involved in the arts and promote synergies in fostering a collaborative partnership between these two fields.

Documentation from the gaming groups third meeting last week.
Jake, Irina, Holly, Freya
With some new attendees there was a greater discussion between the group we really began to think about conceptual elements of gaming we are all interested in and could work with.
Language, interaction, immersion and sabotage we're our key words.
We felt we needed to get the logistics of the space at Tate and then we could really get stuck into the project!

Wed 6th Dec
Collective meeting of groups involved in the Tate Late, we realised our projects had strong running themes and we could possibly all work together on the Tate late project. We thought about how our projects could coexist in the space and discussed our existing ideas. After an exciting discussion we decided to wait to see the space later that day...
All of the groups in the DMC went to view the space at Tate
I and Irina attended from the gaming group.
This was a very successful meeting as our group was previously at a point where we felt we couldn't develop too far without seeing the space and knowing the logistics.
We found out the DMC have the 4th floor and we can have projections and sound which is great news.
We need to work on a collective blurb for the Tate Late guide!
It also made it all more real and put some healthy pressure on the gaming group to develop a solid idea and work with it.
An image is attached of the space at Tate.

Game reflective meeting. I and Irina attended.
After viewing Tate we felt we needed to get something going.
I and Irina had a progressive meeting in which we discussed practical ideas such as using paint 3D and a webcam and a projector to create AR and an immersive gaming space or an AR avatar. We discussed gaming videos and language we could project. The use of sound and how we would like to have ambient gaming sound playing. We decided we could look at Jake's existing work and incorporate some of that.
We decided to go and expermanent and also see if we know anyone else that could join the group and be committed.
Next meeting:

Monday 11th DMC Tate Late planning meeting 12pm-2pm
Tuesday 12th Gaming group meeting 2.30pm Maker Space
