•  MAL AU PIXEL 5 | YKON GAME •
http://www.malaupixel.org


YKON is a non-profit advocacy group for unrepresented nations,  
experimental countries and utopian thinkers. The disseminiation and  
production of knowledge on such fragile entities through co-operation  
between the arts and all other fields of study is a key interest of  
YKON. Group fusion, curiosity about utopian fantasy productions, and  
interest in the emergence and drying-up of alternative architectures  
of society unite its membership.

•  YKON-GAME arrives in Paris ! •

We invite you to play a game with us on the 20th june at Eof Galery  
from 14h to 19h.

The YKON Game is a world simulation game for up to 30 players. It's  
based on a simple thought experiment: imagine that the world is  
brought to a complete halt. Everything stops. No more business as  
usual. With the world frozen, you and your fellow players can tinker  
with it as you please. What will you change? How do you convince  
others to go along with your changes? And what about the consequences?

Through the 1960's, Buckminster Fuller was developing the "World  
Game". It was to be his masterplan for the planet Earth: a tool that  
would formulate a comprehensive, design science approach to all the  
problems of the world. Inspired by the ideas of Fuller, we have  
developed the YKON Game, a more poetic perspective on the future of  
our world.

Instead solving the problems that we know, The YKON Game seeks to  
uncover the ideas that we're still missing -- sometimes wonderful,  
sometimes terrifying thoughts that could forever alter the world, and  
the way we live in it. For its players, the game poses an existential  
challenge: they will have to think about what kind of world they truly  
want.

So come and change the world. You don't need to be an expert: everyone  
is welcome.

Le collectif Ykon, qu’on connait pour être d’ardents défenseurs des  
micronations, revient à Mal au Pixel avec un jeu participatif.
Imaginez que vous vous réveillez sur une Terre à l’état d’arrêt, tout  
est à repenser, à réinventer. Remake du World Game de Buckminster  
Fuller, le jeu proposé par le collectif Ykon est ouvert à la  
participation de tous.

•  Venez rejouer le monde avec nous !  •

Le Ykon Game est un jeu de simulation du monde, jusqu’à 30 joueurs.
Il prend pour point de départ une simple expérience mentale :  
imaginons que la planète Terre soit amenée à se figer. Tout s’arrête :  
plus rien ne fonctionne comme avant. Dans un monde à l’état d’arrêt,  
vous et les autres joueurs êtes libres de le redéfinir comme il vous  
plait. Alors que changerez-vous ? Comment convaincrez-vous les autres  
de vos changements ? Quelles conséquences sont induites par votre  
scénario ?

Dans les années 60, Buckminster Fuller a développé le « World Game »,  
qui était son schéma directeur pour la planète Terre, un outil pensé  
pour formuler des propositions concrètes aux problèmes du monde, de  
façon transversale et prospective. Inspirés par les idées de Fuller,  
nous avons créé le Ykon Game dans une approche plus poétique et  
créative quant au devenir de notre monde.

Plutôt que de résoudre les problèmes courants, le Ykon Game cherche à  
révéler les idées qui nous manquent – parfois merveilleuses et  
utopiques, aussi bien que terrifiantes et pessimistes – et qui  
pourraient bien changer notre avenir et nos façons de vivre. Pour les  
joueurs, la situation proposée est d’ordre existentiel : ils doivent  
imaginer quel monde il veulent vraiment.

Alors venez jouer et refaire le monde. Nul besoin d’expert, tout le  
monde est bienvenu !

•  RSVP  •
Le jeu est gratuit sur inscription, contact : info at ykon.org
Les intervenants sont de langue anglaise et seront assistés de  
francophones. Le jeu se déroule de 14 à 19h, suivi d’un pot amical  
avant la soirée d’ouverture du festival.
Les propositions faites par les participants seront documentées par  
les membres d’Ykon, afin de compléter le corpus du projet (9 parties  
ont déjà été jouées).
Nous sommes à la recherche aussi bien d’adolescents, d’artistes, de  
militants de la société civile et d’acteurs des transformations  
sociales, que de joueurs invétérés et de curieux…
