Playing Between Worlds: The Fun Palace SMP
Now Play This Artistic Director Lujan Oulton talks with members of the Minecraft Bloc in a live streamed online tour through the Fun Palace reconstruction in Minecraft. They will also discuss how the project came about, the nature of Fun Palaces and the revolutionary act of play.
On October 13th 2023, The Minecraft Bloc research group at the Technoculture, Art and Games (TAG) lab revisited the avantgarde notion of the “Fun Palace” by Cedric Price, Joan Littlewood.
In a specially designed and modded Minecraft server, together with a group of contributors, they realized this ambitious cultural project. Join us for a look back at the project, and a guided walk through the structure that remains as documentation of the gargantuan build.
