At some point existence needs no further justification, but is justified in itself already, by itself already. For me this point is clearest in a computer game. We think the game should have a point outside the game, but I ask why? A game in itself is delightful, and with a little moderation, delightfully harmless, and with a good design, delightfully cerebral. If you need a reason, a game is the most challenging artform. It skirts questions of the computable. A man or woman or a team writes an experience out in logic, and somehow, like an Escher from the wood carvings that ruined his hands, a phoenix of spindly filaments and mind draws and drags up from the automata. |
