THE TABLE GAME

The Table Game is both a game and a live performance bringing together communities from different parts of the world. In this game the members of one community will work Together to solve the problem of another community and then perform the solution in a live tele-performance.

This performance of the Table Game happened at The Digital Arts Expo at the California Institute of the Arts in May 2019. There were two groups of students playing the game. One group from CalArts and the other group was from the University of Chile. The two groups had been communicating for months in preparation of the game. During the expo performance, the two groups played the game in an attempt to solve each other's problems and then performed the answer live.
