Architect Nathalie Pozzi (Nakworks) and game designer Erik Zimmerman (New York University), visiting professors at the Institute of Visual Design, are giving a joint open lecture on their recent work: large-scale installations that sit at the intersection of game design and architecture.
Over the last several years, Nathalie and Eric have designed a series of large-scale game installations that are part architectural sculpture and part interactive performance.
These projects, which playfully shape and subvert both physical and social space, are played in public spaces ranging from galleries to streetscapes to the outdoor Sculpture Garden at the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
