Sunset Sway | 落日间

落日间(http://xpaidia.com/)是一个试问「何为游戏」与「游戏何为」的独立媒体实验室品牌,我们正在创作帮助人们理解游戏的文字,播客,视频,与电子游戏。

Sunset Sway is an independent media lab brand that asks what games are and what they are. We are creating words, podcasts, videos, and video games that help people understand games. http://xpaidia.com/

面对如今的电子游戏脱离文化基岩的文化困境,通过界面式的研究创作与「将游戏作为方法」来打破藩篱与创造链接。

We face the cultural dilemma of today's video games which are divorced from the cultural bedrock by creating links and breaking down barriers through working practices called Interface Research / Creation and The Game as Method.


我们的播客落日间是中国目前唯一一档以游戏设计师视角跨界进行对话和关于游戏各方面思考的播客,我们与策展人,艺术家,建筑师,技术工作者,诗人,游戏研究者,哲学家等进行平等对话。https://xpaidia.com/podcast/

Our podcast Sunset is currently the only podcast in China that features conversations and reflections on all aspects of games from the perspective of game designers across borders. We engage in equal dialogue with curators, artists, architects, tech workers, poets, game researchers, philosophers, etc.

我们发起了开放译介展览 日 | 落 译介计划,尽量取得原作者的联系与授权并翻译推荐和展示我们认为优秀的外文文章。https://xpaidia.com/sunset-project/

We launched an open translation exhibition, Sun | Set Translation / Recommendation Project, to try to get contact and authorization from the original authors and to translate, recommend and curate what we think are excellent foreign language articles.

落日间的主理人叶梓涛是游戏设计师,目前在 NExT Studios 全职独立推进一个名为游戏+的研究创作计划,其中的游戏+哲学的作品《时间的形状》获得了 IGF Nuovo Award 的Honorable Mentions 与 Experimental Gameplay Worksho的展示机会。

我们希望能够推动让更多人能够通过电子游戏进行自我表达,https://xpaidia.gitbook.io/pweb/tools

We hope to promote enabling more people to express themselves through video games, by introducing the handy tool for the start

我们认为电子游戏的潜能中蕴藏着一种更加鲜活的人文学的机会,这能够改变我们的教育并与数字人文主义相连接。

We believe that within the potential of video games lies the opportunity for more vibrant humanities (which is about the deep connection with paideia and paidia in Greak) that can transform our education and connect with Digital humanism. https://xpaidia.com/paidia/

我们创作了很多思考和扩展电子游戏与其他事物的非学术化写作,例如游戏严肃性的谱系学《严肃的游戏》, 游戏作为互动系统与生成式音乐的关系《再重聚:音频驱动的游戏设计视角 Re-Reunion: Audio-Gameplay Design》(Presented in Audiokinectic interactive music symposium 2021 in China),游戏作为各种形态在中国当代艺术场域的展现小史《中国当代艺术场域的电子游戏 The video game in the Chinese Contemporary Art Field》,电子游戏与文学形态与生成《文学机器如何运行 How Literature Machine Works》等等。

We have produced many non-academic writings that reflect and expand on video games and other things, such as the genealogy of the seriousness of games《严肃的游戏》, the relationship between games as interactive systems and generative music, 《 Re-Reunion: Audio-Gameplay Design》 (Presented in Audiokinectic interactive music symposium 2021 in China), A short history of the presentation of games as various forms in the Chinese contemporary art field, 《The video game in the Chinese Contemporary Art Field》 , Video Games and Literary Form and Generation 《How Literature Machine Works》and so on.

我们也在持续写作思考以「虚构自然」为核心的电子游戏理论,谈论我们对电子游戏的理解,并且为国内介绍更多优秀的游戏创作者与游戏。

We are also continuing to write and think about video game theory with "fic-structional Physis" at its core, talk about our understanding of video games, and introduce more great game creators and games to the country.

我们还有一份同步进展与进行写作策展实验的双周报 https://xpaidia.zhubai.love/

We also have a bi-weekly newsletter that progresses in tandem with our writing curatorial experiments

我们全网在各平台总量超过100k的粉丝,并且由主理人以业余独立,接受赞助的方式推进。

We have over 100k followers across all platforms and are being promoted by the host on an amateur independent, donation basis.
