[Frameworks] YES: Maggie Hazen / Georgie Roxby Smith / Brent Watanabe (online screening) live tonight 7:30pm ET

[LBurchill]

Q&A with the artists via live chat at 8:30pm ET

Microscope presents another edition of our emerging artist series *YES*
with an online screening of works by Maggie Hazen, Georgie Roxby Smith, and
Brent Watanabe.

The program focuses on works that interfere with, alter, or otherwise
intervene within the fixed and scripted structure of action-adventure video
games. Popular titles familiar to non-gamer audiences as well, such as *Grand
Theft Auto V (GTA V), Call of Duty, Tomb Raider, *and *The Incredible Hulk*,
are reinterpreted by the artists to highlight the representation of gender
in virtual reality, as well as the abstracted and subdued depictions of
violence with their ramifications in real life, and the possibilities for
more human and empathetic gaming models.
WATCH Link will appear by 7:15pm:
