Overview

Game Masters is one of the biggest exhibits ever at ACMI, containing a massive amount of content. A single modern game contains upwards of eight movies' worth of information. But this is also the downfall of the exhibit – it's literally impossible for one person to experience the whole of it.

But some people come close, namely the kingpins of the whole event - the curators - who work tirelessly for months to choose games, contact designers, and arrange consoles. Come and hear Fiona Trigg, also curator of last year's Indie Game exhibit talk about some of the most inspiring game designers of the last decade.

At Game Masters Curator Talks: Indies she will be discussing the people, companies and stories behind games including modern timewaster favourites Angry Birds and Fruit Ninja, postapocalyptic puzzler Machinarium, and classic platformer Another World.
