Videogames as Art

Posted by michael on from the de-gustibus dept.

Philip Kollar writes "AllRPG has just posted Games As Art, Part 2. In this article, I attempt to create a viable list of things that come together to make a videogame art, rather than just entertainment. I also explore how these three concepts (writing, design, and interactivity) have been used in other forms of media and how they're being further explored in the world of gaming."

    Meanwhile, the only art you get out of the stuff at the museum is when you stand there and wonder "wtf is *this* supposed to be?"

    Note that the artist is the guy who made it, not the guy who looks at it or uses it.
