GLITCHBODIES is an inclusive project that celebrates LGBTQ+, drag transformations, new forms of feminism and intimate, sensitive representations of its protagonists. Through collaborations and rituals, the GLITCHBODIES GAME SHOW at S_P_I_T_ Festival will create a collective and politically charged body, providing new perspectives on gender equality and motherly care to its audience. This performance art piece is an interactive and digital space that celebrates its protagonists and opens new perspectives for the player. A special version is created for this year’s S_P_I_T_ festival opening night, showcasing Vienna-based queer artists to respond to socio-political factors as well as to the very male-dominated world of video games by creating an interactive digital space, a fluid journey through infinite individual, gender, and realities. GLITCHBODIES GAME SHOW will combine live performances by Vienna-based protagonists Susie Flowers, Tony Renaissance, Sheezus, Annemarie Arzberger, Alexandru Cosarca, Danielle Pamp and Marie Luise Lehner, live gaming by Rebecca Merlic and live sound composed by Manuel Riegler. GLITCHBODIES GAME SHOW was shown in the context of Experimental Game Cultures Ludic Soirée at the University of Applied Arts Vienna and at Decommune Bangkok, Thailand.
