Even this long after my 4-year tenure at art college, the word “installation” still makes me want to vomit. However, these fantastic images by Esther Stocker caught my eye because of their resemblence to the many test maps we’ll create in the course of trying out various gameplay features in game development.
The second one bears an uncanny resemblance to Star Trek’s holodeck, surely the ultimate goal for videogames?
