Paidia Laboratory: feedback examines computer games as closed feedback systems, as servomechanisms or control chains that may or may not involve human elements.| Vernissage: Sunday 29 January 17:00 - 20:00, Exhibition dates: Sunday 29 January - Sunday 5 February 2012 11:00 - 19:00, Address: Computerspielemuseum, Karl-Marx-Allee 93a, 10243 Berlin

Paidia Laboratory: feedback examines computer games as closed feedback systems, as servomechanisms or control chains that may or may not involve human elements. In an ongoing series of artistic experiments the feedback behaviour of games is studied and put in new contexts through modifications of hardware and software, creating an open structure of artefacts, schematics and patterns. The focus lies not on the usability of games, but rather on an archeology of interaction – determining the limits and boundaries of games in order to understand the media specific characteristics of computer games and the spaces they create.

 

Computerspielemuseum is the world's first museum devoted to digital interactive entertainment culture. Since their opening in 1997, they have documented the development of the medium at over 30 national and international exhibitions. More than 300 exhibits are shown in their new permanent exhibition in an interactive and experiment-friendly environment that conveys the cultural history of computer and video games.
