Nova Gorica
“ Through the Tunnel ” ( working name , ad hoc by p . P .)
is a new-media project that attempts to create an interactive computer game , based on a real location ( the tunnel in Gorica old town ) that deals with the passage or progress of the individual ( player ) from ignorance to knowledge , building on real media materials and data from the historical , sociological anthropological and other research on this location . The game should however also have a generic appeal to any player , even if not acquainted with Gorica or the actual tunnel as such .
The students work divided into 2 interconnected groups : the “ Studio ” Group ( game production , artwork ), and the ” Terrain ” Group ( public space research , story ); please see the agreed workflow between the two groups , and the respective competencies , in the picture attached below .
1 ) Task Until Next Meeting :
Gather , ( each student is to ) study and post ( including comments ) any interesting books , articles , blogs , films , videos , songs , games ( payed ) or tunnels ( passed ), stories , anecdotes … or anything that might inspire the group “ research ” phase . Posts with ample materials ( links , attachments …) should be made by Nov 7 , into
Project forum , within the NM2-4 course on moodle , but please just “ chime in ” ( make one short post ) immediately , so we know “ you are here ”!
