遊戲——李綺琪多媒體作品展

Game – Gigi Lee’s Multimedia Solo Exhibition

遊戲是人類生活中重要的一環。不論是幼兒階段到老年，人的生活中幾乎離不開遊戲。隨著電子科技的發展，遊戲更由實體道具走向虛擬世界。

從小我就對電子遊戲很著迷，從任天堂八十年代出產的掌上型遊戲到現在的手遊及AR技術遊戲等。遊戲的發展反映了四十年來科技的發展與未來人類價值觀的轉變，亦同時開始影響著傳統的經濟模式。未來一代所追求的是數字（Digital）價值，而非既有的實體價值。00後這一代，所接觸的世界幾乎都是數碼的世界。動畫、初音、遊戲道具及遊戲幣對他們來說是一種理所當然的資產。

藝術家Cory Arcangel的作品《Super Mario Clouds》就是透過改變任天堂經典遊戲Super Mario Clouds的晶片製作而成，這個作品就像遊戲中的遊戲。Super Mario Cloud面世也接近四十年了，遊戲的技術已經發展到互動以至虛擬實景及擴充實景。人類置身在遊戲中有時候也很難分辨出甚麼是虛甚麼是實，而虛與實的價值研究又如何界定？

這次展覽主要通過用現今流行的遊戲技術混合傳統的手工遊戲讓參與者體驗並思考數碼世界與現實世界的值價觀。

The notion of play has long been a crucial factor in our lives, as our doings integrate and unfold in games. When technology advances, the world of gaming has moved away from interactive equipment and manifested in virtual reality.

I have always been obsessed with video games; from the 80s’ Nintendo’s Game Boy, to the mobile games and AR devices of today. The gaming industry has reflected on forty years of technological developments and the changes of human values, at the same time, the game industry continued to shape our economic structure. In place of physical value, the next generation will be driven by the utility of a digital future. The 00s grow up in the intangible digital world, in a society that would be characterized by the digital assets of animation, virtual Idols, game accessories and virtual currencies.

For his video installation “Super Mario Clouds”, Cory Arcangel has tweaked the game’s code in a cartridge of Super Mario Brothers, presenting his work as a game within the game. Forty years have passed since Super Mario Clouds came out, and the mainstream of game culture is now dominated by virtual and augmented reality. As we maneuver in digital games, it is becoming hard to tell reality from fantasy. In such context, how do we transfer our real life values into the digital world?

The exhibition will investigate the latest gaming technologies with traditional game consoles, by inviting the audiences to rethink on the real and digital world.
