CONFERENCE L'ARCHEOLOGIE DU JEU VIDEO

VIDEO GAMES AND ARCHAEOLOGY!

Alexis Blanchet will take you on a journey of discovery into the past of video games, from the earliest laboratory experiments to the rise of the global industry, with a particular focus on the unique history of video games in France.
This discussion time offers a chance to gain a better understanding of this world by looking at historical objects, such as a Pong clone from the 1970s and its accessories, to analyse their invention, design and use at the time.

With Alexis Blanchet, lecturer in film and audiovisual studies at Sorbonne Nouvelle University (Cinema and Audiovisual Department), author of Des pixels à Hollywood and Une histoire du Jeu Vidéo en France.
