Conference For Art Games: Zine Library
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 any combination of the conference, exhibition and zine library.
Though our programming will prioritize opportunities for artists and gamemakers with connections to Atlantic Canada we welcome submissions from those based anywhere in the world. Though we can't support travel to the conference all accepted applicants will recieve a ticket to the event.
