Subject: Discordia welcomes Guest Host Stella Rollig on Curating

This week Discordia welcomes Stella Rollig as our current Guest Host!

Please join us for a discussion on the field of critical
curating launched by Curating Degree Zero Archive: A Touring
Exhibition, Archive and Web-Resource Exploring the Field of Critical
Curating:
http://www.discordia.us/scoop/section/guesthost

The discussion will focus mainly on how to curate critique: is this
only a question of content or is it equally a question of
structuring/disturbing the space of representation and therefore of
the exhibition space?


Also this week on Discordia:

Group activity: Amy Alexander invites you to rewrite the histories of
the Apple computer and of Internet art.

Turbulence Artists? Studio: ?Left To My Own Devices? by Geoffrey Thomas
http://turbulence.org/studios/thomas/

?Left To My Own Devices? uses the codes of digital games to explore a
narrative of loss and awkward renewal. The game's main character
navigates a space of playful interaction and fragmented animation. Game
segments take inspiration from the shifting emotional states associated
with loss. The character's backstory is gradually revealed through game
play.

Date: 10.25.03
From: Dyske Suematsu (dyske AT dyske.com)
Subject: Understanding the Medium of Video Game

Throughout history, even before computers came into existence, human
beings have wrestled with the notion of "real". In the 60s, it was
psychedelic drugs that inspired the question, "What is reality?" Now, it
is the medium of computers armed with high-performance graphics
processors that inspire the same question. Los Angeles based art
cooperative C-Level seems to be keen on understanding the message of
this modern medium.

Their new project "Waco Resurrection" premiered on October 16 at the
Kitchen in New York City. It is a 3D role-playing game where players
become Vernon Howell (aka David Koresh), the cult leader of Branch
Davidian in Waco, Texas. The game is played with a "hard-plastic 3D
skin" featuring a voice-activated interface. Participants run around the
Branch Davidian compound with a variety of weapons shooting at FBI
agents and other adversaries. They are also bombarded with the
government "psy-ops" such as the blasting of Nancy Sinatra's "These
Boots Are Made for Walking." It is a complex experience in many ways,
triggering many emotions, which in turn prompt many questions.

This summer, a similar game called "9-11 Survivor" was available on the
Internet, and was quickly labeled by many as exploitative. Brody Condon,
a member of the team that developed "Waco Resurrection," was the teacher
of the game-design class that produced "9-11 Survivor." My first
question when I observed the installation of "Waco" at the Kitchen was:
What are the criteria for something to be "exploitative"?

To exploit, according to Merriam-Webster, is "to make use of meanly or
unjustly for one's own advantage or profit." Monetary gain is the most
obvious, but neither game is a commercial venture. Why then are people
so quick to label "9-11 Survivor" exploitative? The only other motive
that I can think of is fame, or recognition, but this is merely an
assumption, albeit an obvious one. The truth of the matter is that the
critics of the game do not know what the motive of the creators was.

There is nothing inherently exploitative about trying to recreate
experiences of others. The public smoothly accepts movies like "Titanic"
and "Pearl Harbor" only because the actual events happened decades ago.
Why should time be a factor in the notion of exploitation? Why are text
descriptions of the event acceptable, but not a 3D graphical
representation? Why are web-based interactive presentations by news
organizations such as New York Times acceptable? It appears that what is
required in order to be publicly acceptable is reduction or dulling of
information either in time or in resolution. If the time is too soon,
your presentation will feel too real. If the resolution of your
presentation is too high, it will feel too real also.

Something that looks and feels real, yet is protected from any real
consequences, has an entertainment value. We are tempted to see and feel
what it was like without risking our own lives for it. This
entertainment value is what is perceived to be vulgar or of bad taste.
But again, this is a projection of our own questionable motive or
desire. Why should we assume that the same motive applies to everyone
else, as common as it may be?

The theme that runs through much of C-Level's work appears to be the
disconnect we experience in computer generated reality. Mainstream games
such as Unreal Tournament and Grand Theft Auto are based mostly on
fictional scenarios. Despite the fact that players continuously massacre
people with powerful guns or by running them over with cars, the
emotions generated tend to be those of excitement, not sorrow or guilt.
When the context of the game is closer to reality, such as Waco or 9-11,
it is more difficult to disconnect from natural emotions or empathies.
In playing "Waco", emotions are mixed and confused. The context prevents
players from simply enjoying the excitement of blowing up people and
objects.

This feeling of disconnect is explored in a different way with another
work by C-Level, "Tekken Torture Tournament." Tekken is a popular
fighting game where players assume a role of a master of martial art. In
the C-Level version of it, for every blow received, one is also given an
electric shock, thereby matching what is seen with what is felt
physically. In high-resolution video games like Tekken, there is a
substantial discrepancy between what the eyes and ears experience and
what other parts of the body experience. By filling in the gaps, one
becomes more aware of the disconnectedness of the original game.

But to blame this feeling of disconnect to the technology itself would
be a mistake. It is more a product of our alienation than it is an
effect of high technology. One can create a similar feeling of
disconnect without technology. For instance, pinch your nose so that you
cannot smell anything, and take a sip of expensive brandy. Your sense of
smell is disconnected from the flavor of the brandy, and it creates a
very different experience. Better yet, wipe the surface of raw fish with
a piece of tissue paper, plug your nose with it, and take a sip. When
you drive through a thunderstorm, what you are looking at is the same as
what the pedestrian outside is looking at, but you are nice and dry,
comfortably chatting with your company, a far cry from what the
pedestrian is feeling. In a freezing cold weather, you are wearing 10
layers of clothes, and you are actually feeling too hot. This too is a
feeling of disconnect.

For most people, what they know about 9-11 came through the same
mechanisms they usually use to consume any other types of information.
There was nothing substantially different about their experience of 9-11
from their experience of Hollywood movies, other than their awareness of
the fact that 9-11 happened for real, and that Hollywood movies are
fictional. Some people were troubled by the fact that 9-11 did not feel
any different from watching a Hollywood movie. They felt guilty, and had
a difficult time admitting the discrepancy between how they felt and
what they thought they should feel. I believe there was a certain degree
of honesty in their feelings of disconnect. After all, there was no
substantial difference in the nature of their experience; it was only
psychological. In order to reconcile these feelings of disconnect, many
people flocked around Ground Zero to see the aftermath of the tragedy.
We all employ different ways of reconciling our feelings with what we
perceive. For some people, visiting Ground Zero was nothing more than an
amusement, but for others, it was a necessary process of reconciliation.
We cannot make an overarching judgment of other people's actions based
on what our own motive would be. Perhaps for some people, experiencing
what it was like to be trapped in the WTC towers through the means of 3D
computer graphics was meaningful.

In some ways, this is similar to the effort made by C-Level to add the
component of physical pain to the video game Tekken. Those who are
perceptive and conscientious enough cannot help feeling a sense of
disconnect in playing such a game, and they are tempted to make an
effort at reconciling it. This, however, has nothing to do with the
nature of technology per se.

There are people whose emotional pain is so great that they feel
comforted by inflicting and feeling physical pain on themselves. This
too is fundamentally the same effort of reconciliation. Whenever we feel
alienated, we try to reconcile. Alienation is a feeling that what we do
or feel is not part of us. The term is more often used to describe the
disconnect between who we are and what we produce (as in classical
Marxist critiques), but my concern here is with who we are and what we
feel. Just because we feel something, does not necessarily mean that it
is connected to who we are. The problem is not so much that there are
discrepancies and contradictions among the pieces of our sensory
information, but that there is nothing that can tie these mismatching
pieces into something coherent, something we can feel as our own. When
our emotions originate from within ourselves, as disparate and
contradictory as they may be, they make sense at least from our own
perspectives. If they do not originate from within ourselves, that is,
if they are being manipulated by external forces, we cannot make any
sense out of the chaos of our own emotions, and we feel alienated from
them.

It is analogous to how an electrical motor works. If you feed
electricity into a motor, it turns. Reverse the process and turn it with
your hand, it generates electricity. The same can happen with human
beings. That is, there are passive emotions and active emotions. Just
because you feel something does not necessarily mean that it originated
in you. It might be a result of external triggers. You feel alienated
when most of your emotions are triggered externally, when your life is
filled with apathy, and when you are a slave to your own feelings. It is
not because of the fact that you work on a computer everyday that
necessarily causes the feeling of disconnect. It is not the impressive
realism of video games that causes it either. You could be a chef who
has never had any need to touch a computer, and still feel the general
feeling of disconnect in everything you do.

Shown on giant screens, in vivid color, and with surround audio, movies
are capable of impressive realism. Often they make viewers identify with
their characters. Literature too can feel so real that one starts
crying. Some of those feelings too are passive and active. The reason
why we hardly hear anyone complain about the disconnect between what
they see and what they feel in movies or novels, is because many of them
engender active emotions in us. This is the difference between art and
entertainment; the former is an opportunity to find our genuine, active
emotions, whereas the latter manipulates our sensory perceptions to
artificially induce emotions in us. This is why true art makes consumers
work hard, whereas a piece of entertainment is served on a sliver
platter for easy consumption, essentially telling consumers how to feel.
The reason why video games tend to invite criticism of disconnect is
because most of them provide no opportunity for our active emotions to
manifest themselves. "Waco Resurrection" is one such attempt at creating
this opportunity.

C-Level may face some difficulties in changing the perception that video
games are devoid of true emotions, but once the public understands and
sees the potential of the medium, we may soon see a wave of new art
using the medium. In other words, the name "video game" has a bad rap
that it needs to get over first. It is a form of prejudice; the common
associations with the label "video game" are getting in the way of
seeing the full potential of the medium. It is similar to the way
cartoon is perceived in this country. It may face a real uphill battle,
but I have a faith in the determinations of video gamers.
