During the month of July, I shared a series of contributions on Patreon that revolve around our machinima curated program known as VRAL, now in its fourth season. On Patreon, we share exclusive video essays, articles, insights, and behind-the-scenes details with our dedicated community. Our goal is to offer a unique glimpse into the minds of talented artists and visionaries working with video games today at the intersection of cinema, streaming culture, and vide art . These interviews, deep dives and extra content shed light on their artistic philosophies, aspirations, and the profound impact they hope to make through their creations.
Here are some Patreon-exclusive articles related to our VRAL #71 exhibition (July 14 - 27 2023) , the online world premiere of Ghost City by Hugo Arcier:
- Limited views. On Hugo Arcier's FPS
- Hugo Arcier's Limbus series
- video essay: A closer look at Hugo Arcier's Ghost City
- video: Hugo Arcier's Synthetic Interview (2016)
- Elephants in the Room: Alan Clarke, Hugo Arcier, Gus Van Sant
Also: we released the VRAL S03 book and Patrons can purchase a discounted copy. The book is available in print format only.
I would like to express my gratitude for making VRAL possible: your support allows us to be completely independent.
