ROUND TABLE : GENDER AND VIDEO GAMES

Sunday, September 20th, 15:30 at the Shadok

Following the screening of the documentary GET THE F&#% OUT by Shannon Sun-Higginson, which highlights misogyny in the gamer environment and the video games industry, a round table in the presence of three speakers will discuss the gender issue. A topical subject but, above all, a sensitive one since the recent Zoe Quinn and GamerGate a airs.

Speakers:
Shannon Sun-Higginson, director of GTFO
Dam Dam, audiovisual director specialising in video and a Gaming Live and Twitch streamer. Lover of cultures and mainly Japanese “alternative” practices associated with video games
Mélanie Christin, co-founder of the independent studio Atelier 801 and creator of the multiplayer game Transformice.
