"Messed-Up Games"

SelectParks is putting together a large public database of experiments
and artworks exploring the use and/or modification of computer gaming
technologies.

Of particular interest is work coming from either a fine-arts or
theoretical perspective. We are also interested in work purely concerned
with exploring the limits of the technology:

Including:

3D engine hacks Architectural Investigations Gameboy and handheld hacks
Game to real world applications [eg: robotics] AI / Bot design Console
modifications Machinima Game Engines for audio installation /
performance Renderer Hacks [PanQuake etc] Research on Platform
Independence / Portability Written Theory

SelectParks is not interested in game-related illustrations,
conventional level design, tags and skins, or work that celebrates in-
game exploits.

While work does not have to result in an operable game, it must directly
engage gaming technology specifically, toward the ends of developing it
for applications outside of the computer game marketplace.

We are also not seeking flash or shockwave games.

The site will feature:

Submissions [Due 26th November]:

For each submission we require either a 120 * 90 image or a 500k [or
less] mp3, and two lines of text. From these we will link to your site.
Alternatively we can link to a project page that we will make for you.

We will soon have servers for popular multi-user development platforms
like Quake [II and Q3a], Unreal Tournament, with support also for Linux
based engines.

The site will bring together the resources and innovations of the
computer gaming and demo scenes in contact with those wishing to explore
alternative applications for these rich technologies.

Please email nearhere@selectparks.net with questions and / or details of
your project.
