Our “To the Streets” initiative is about bringing games into unique public spaces. In 2014 we did it mostly on the down-low, experimenting with different approaches and models, but you can watch the great 4 minute video piece Curio did documenting our first iteration.

Keep an eye out for the forthcoming issue of Spacing, which includes an article about the initiative by Zack Kotzer.

We did several iterations of it this year. Our June iteration was part of 100 in 1 Day, in July we partnered with the Figment festival on Toronto Island and in August we curated games at an outdoor Wavelength music event. The core team for To the Streets was Dave Fono, Sean Lerner, Callum Hay, Adam Blake and Patricio Davila.

Interested in the project? We’re having our first planning meeting the evening of Monday Jan. 5th Wed. Jan 7th at 7pm, so if you have ideas on cool ways games could intersect with public space, RSVP with jim@handeyesociety.com and we’ll give you further details!
