About C4 Art Games

This event is a space to showcase and support the growing games and interactive art community in Atlantic Canada. C4 looks at how games can be used as an expressive art medium and critical cultural objects. Hosted by the Centre for Arts Tapes, an inclusive artist-run centre that supports artists who use video, audio, and electronic media to express ideas and stories that are under-represented in mainstream culture.

Call for Submissions

C4 builds off CFAT’s mission to put marginalized artists into the centre of discourses and practices of media art and as such, encourages artists and game makers from backgrounds not typically represented in mainstream games culture. We hope to support submissions which might not be valued in more traditional game conferences or art exhibitions.

We encourage those interested in submitting to both the conference and exhibition.
