Wear the Game : Designing narratives for digital fashion
How can digital fashion, as a field of experimentation, contribute to the invention of new forms of storytelling and interaction in video games?
Beyond simple character customization, how can game mechanics enrich the fashion experience? Wear the Game: Designing Narratives for Digital Fashion is an invitation to consider the act of wearing virtual clothes as a playful experience. It advocates a conception of digital fashion where clothing is a narrative, relational and introspective interface, grounded in connection, memory, attention, and care. Designed as a brainstorming tool, this talk will explore new formats combining video game worlds and virtual clothing.
