pretty interesting topic and relevant in todays culture. i should like to do a bit more research and learn more about how the almighty gif came to be.

VIDEO GAMES ARE ART!!!! apparently.

so i know we have briefly discussed this topic in class and had a few presentations on it before, but now it seems video games as art AND design are now being legitimized. 

MoMa in New York is including a group of 14 video games in their art collection. Pac-Man, Tetris and others among them. Listen to the NPR story here.
