Program
We've selected a nice variety of game developers, journalists, hackers, artists and even an architect to talk with us about game design, artistic- and vintage games, the impact of games on society, pinball machines and playability. Join us for fifteen whirlwind talks, have a drink, and swap ideas, screen names and game hacks.
The speakers are: David Nieborg, Vlambeer, Anna Sonnemans, FourceLabs, BlewScreen, Koen Martens, Matthijs Dierckx Kuijper, Gijs Gieskes, Richard Boeser, Niki Smit (Monobanda), Dreams of Danu, Jeroen van der Heijden (Vals Plat), Kars Alfrink (Hubbub), Joost van Dongen (Ronimo Games), en Ekin Tan.
Arcade
Ignite Amsterdam 4 is part of Mediamatic's latest exhibition, Arcade: an expanding collection of old and new games and installations. We kick off with a collection of rare vintage arcade video games operating alongside our newly developed interactive installations. Exhibition space meets arcade. Come play with us. The opening of Arcade will take place on December 18th.
