Putting a whole new spin on the conventional notion of the raid—usually understood as an invasion of a particular digital space, a kind of attack—in this online multi-player game we will discover what emotions we can express and construct in these digital environments.
| Duration: | 3 hours |
In this way, Feeling Raid suggests that it is possible to launch “affective raids”, to appropriate violence by creating oases of emotion in places traditionally off-limits to us. And that we can do so on a massive scale, invading those spaces.
These are our weapons. And we want to play with them.
