Like An Event In A Dream Dreamt By Another: A Rehearsal
Release Date: October 15, 2023
Runtime: 14 min
In RPGs (role-playing games), one could say that real life can be rehearsed in a superstitious manner, with supernatural beings and worlds. Since the emergence of computer processing power and video games, the third world was a source for worldbuilding and space to apply game operations. Those games are not isolated from the socio-cultural and political environment that they are developed in. On the other hand, third-world gamers, developers, streamers, and hackers managed to modify those games and apply their own hyperreality in order to rehearse their world. This project explores how Palestinian players, GTA mods, and servers are simulating real life under colonial rule. Like An Event In A Dream Dreamt By Another: A Rehearsal examines Los Santos as a corollary to Palestine.
