[school-discuss] Art of Video Games

[Joel Kahn <jj2kk4@xxxxxxxxx>]

A little over a year from now, the Smithsonian Institution
in Washington DC is scheduled to have an interesting show:

This seems to be something of a departure for the SI, which
usually tends more towards art exhibitions with a traditional
and historical emphasis:

The Video Game Art event should have considerable educational
value as an interdisciplinary examination of culture, art,
and technology. Note the info about the works going on tour
later; some of you teachers out there might want to think
about trying to get this to a museum near your school.
