SPACE CRUISER ( IVAN SAFRIN, STEPHIN MERRITT & GREG FOX IN COLLABORATION WITH BABYCASTLES)

Join us as Ivan Safrin and Babycastles unveil a the first ever co-operative SPACE GAME made for the Hayden Planetarium Dome. This game will transform the theater into a living, breathing, space ship where participants will be able to navigate around a beautiful fictitious universe. Greg Fox will play a live sound track and Stephin Merritt will be the recorded voice of the on board computer system.

All space ship modules have been hand made by Mike Anderson.

Musical Performance by "One Ring Zero"

We will also be running a curation of games throughout the night, outside of the dome.

BABYCASTLES SPACE ARCADE

Featuring cabinets created by our MoMA TEENS CLASS!

Recurse - Matt Parker (NYC)


A digital game about movement in physical space, the game's distorted mirror encourages players to forget themselves as they twist and stretch their bodies in order to get a high score. Waggling one foot inside a green patch on this side of the screen while stretching out a hand to reach for another patch of green on the other side, all while keeping your hips still inside a red patch, is something that can only be accomplished by someone who has full consciousness of their body and no self-consciousness about their appearance.

Kerbal Space Program - Squad (Condesa, Mexico)

In KSP, you must build a space-worthy craft, capable of flying it's crew out into space, without killing them. At your disposal is a collection of parts, which must be assembled to create a functional ship. Each part has it's own function and will affect the way a ship flies (or doesn't). So strap yourself in, and get ready to try some Rocket Science!

Osmos - Hemisphere games ( nyc + vancouver)

Enter the ambient world of Osmos: elegant, physics-based gameplay, dreamlike visuals, and a minimalist, electronic soundtrack. Your objective is to grow by absorbing other motes. Propel yourself by ejecting matter behind you. But be wise: ejecting matter also shrinks you. Relax - good things come to those who wait.
