Hey Adrian, Thank you so much for your detailed comment on my work. I took the time to listen carefully, and I truly appreciate it—it means a lot. I’d like to bounce back to the theme of video games and art, a subject I’m deeply passionate about. I’m 42 years old, and back in the 90s, I was one of those kids fascinated by this new form of entertainment. Like millions of others in my generation, video games are an integral part of my culture. Game Boy, NES, Master System, SNES, PlayStation, and so on—they’ve always been there, in the background of my life. They became so familiar, so ever-present, that they turned into a sort of normality, almost imperceptible. When I was a kid, I never asked myself whether video games were a form of art. Like most children, I saw them simply for what they were: a source of entertainment. But as the years went by, we grew up, and video games evolved dramatically. What was once blurry has now become much clearer: yes, video games are indeed a form of art. And even if some people remain hesitant to admit or recognize this, I’m convinced that in a few years, it will become an undeniable fact for everyone. Not only do I believe that video games are a form of art, but I also dare to say they represent a total art form in the making. Why? Because, in my view, they are the only artistic medium capable of integrating all others. In this sense, video games are destined to become “total.” Today, a video game can include music, which wasn’t the case at the very beginning (remember, Pong had no music). Since then, the medium has evolved and can now incorporate numerous forms of art: architecture, dance, drawing, photography, scenography, literature, calligraphy, and many more. (Of course, I want to make it clear that my intention isn’t to establish a hierarchy or value judgment between different forms of art. That would be irrelevant.) Take cinema as an example: it can also integrate artistic elements like music, literature, or scenography. However, cinema cannot contain video games, whereas video games can include a cinematic experience. This is why I consider video games unique in their ability to encompass everything. Naturally, one might argue that a video game cannot include all forms of art. Culinary art, for instance: you can’t eat anything in a video game. If my avatar eats a cake, I won’t be able to taste it. And that’s true… for now. But for how much longer? This is precisely why I describe video games as a total art form in the making. The day will come when video games will no longer be confined to screens or VR headsets. We’ll be able to fully immerse ourselves in them, as if in a dream. Imagine: you’ll be able to see, feel, and even taste a chocolate cake as if you were actually there (because, in a sense, you will be… but that’s another discussion, haha). These technologies will inevitably arrive because humanity is not slowing down in its technological advancements—quite the opposite. We’re observing an ever-accelerating pace. These developments will inevitably transform our perception of video games and, by extension, art itself. Video games are far from finished evolving; they continuously push boundaries, standing at the intersection of all art forms. This brings me to another point, one you’re already familiar with: my view on reality. As we discussed in your show, I’m a simulationist. I believe that the nature of our reality is virtual—that it’s a simulation, a video game. This perspective resonates with me as self-evident. If the world is a video game that contains us all, then this video game necessarily contains, by definition, all forms of art. It would also mean that the world itself is a gigantic work of art. In a way, the circle is complete… haha! ^^ Those are my thoughts on the subject. Thank you again for sparking this reflection ✨ Cheers
