HTML + Elles = HTMlles

Art + Technologie + Women + Society

Initiated by Studio XX in 1997, and evolving as quickly as technology itself, theHTMlles Festival is an international platform dedicated to the presentation of women’s independent media artworks from all facets of contemporary technological creation, including but not limited to: digital storytelling, cyber art, short film and video art, audio and electronic art, installation, locative media, 3D animation, game art, virtual reality, electronic publishing, design, performance and interdisciplinary practices.

The Digital Ludology Space invites you to explore imaginative worlds and playful encounters, courtesy of Digital Ludology: Studio XX’s game creation workshop initiated by Bérengère Marin-Dubuard in 2008. These unique new games will spill out into the exhibition space, beckoning you to set down the everyday world and play along. The Digital Ludology Space promises to be a provocative yet lighthearted environment devoted to exploring the playful side of digital art. The space features creative gaming contexts, unusual controllers, alternative narratives, and experimental interactions, all set to a fun retro soundtrack. Over the course of the week, we will also play host to workshops, fantasy pitches and show-and-tell sessions showcasing the creativity of our local women game creators. Come join us, as we re-invision the arcade!

My wishes have been granted. I have a wooden joystick. I am certain to get a lot of joy out of this stick. And so can you. With the help of Jodie Bard of TWIG toys in Montreal, I have a wooden joystick for my video game project PAPER CUT. The game will be presented with the Stick at HTMLLEs festival in Montreal this week. Geordie Theatre Space @ 4001 Rue Berri, below duluth. November 17, 2010.
