Game / Play was a national touring exhibition that explores goal-orientated gaming and playful interaction through media arts practice; focusing on the rhetorical constructs game and play.
This collaboration between Q Arts/QUAD, Derby and HTTP Gallery, London, provided a framework for artists, curators and writers to develop a context for a practical and conceptual exchange through exhibition, commission and networked activity. Artists’ works fall under three main categories: installations, independent video games and online (networked) artworks.

TAG by Low Brow Trash is a specially commissioned interactive projection situated somewhere between real life experience, film and computer game. Various city settings provide a space
for the playing out of different scenarios, the creation of digital graffiti or the creation of poetry. Engaging and playful, TAG explores notions of naming and playing.
