The Games Plan is a Future Physical initiative to explore ways
in which computer games and new communications mediums can be applied
to a wider cultural framework, consisting of several projects, ranging
from SMS text message games and small-scale web-based commissions
to a full-scale new gaming platform or product integrating performative
aspects of dance and movement.
The Games Plan will
open up a new interface between the human body and technology, exploring online
multi-player gaming and persistent virtual environments that exist both
real and virtually, including artificial life processes, motion-capture and
new user interfaces.
Under the
V-You development the aim is to enable the public and professionals
to generate virtual renditions of themselves - a V-You
- through body and facial scanning, and then to plug your V-You
into both web-based and standalone virtual environments.
Within the Games
Plan, there will be projects which constantly evolve,
one-off events and physical installations. We would like the public to get
involved in all phases of the project.
