Prof. Olia Lialina and her students presented the results of their semester project, “A Film? A Game? A Artwork?”

A film can feel like a game. Some games are more cinematic than many films. A novel can be interactive.

This semester’s main focus was art games, game art and games as part of contemporary art scene. Where are the borders? And what is this moment exactly when you say I’m not a game maker, I am an artist. And vice versa, what is it that make you proudly state, I am making games, not art?
