OPEN CALL for collaborators:
邊界_RG invites game developers, software engineers, artists, designers, researchers, theorists, writers, blockchain researchers and interdisciplinary practitioners to participate in the development of IM-EX (implicit–explicit) in collaboration with 邊界_RG.
implicit-explicit is an interface-driven, multimodal game exploring questions around digital frameworks, embodiment, language, navigation, interfaces, emergence and information as a constant-evolving process.
This game emerges as a project within Sybil's Arc 2 residency, where, for six months, the 邊界_RG team will be working on developing the project with the help of collaborators.
