V. ARTS&Games

ARTS&Games discusses ideas of art and the art of ideas. What we do not understand, we mold into art or games: We represent the world in a game or a piece of art. A game is a representation of the world. By playing with the possibilities and limits of representation we transform the problem of understanding into everyday concepts and experience. This also holds for art.
