The conference “L’urbanisme, l’architecture et le jeu vidéo : que fabrique le « game design » ? ” will take place on March 29 and 30, 2018 in Villeneuve-d’Ascq, France.
Summary
The changing relationships and boundaries between urbanism, architecture and video games are at the heart of the questions of these days of study. The new, deep and lasting changes in these areas reveal the interest, indeed the urgency, of a reformulation of this interaction between the thoughts of space and the phenomena of video-games.
