MoPOP’s CEO, Michele Smith discusses all things gaming in this interview with Gaming.net. Michele touches on the culture surrounding video games, the importance of recognizing indie game creators, and how the museum invites visitors to view video games as an important art form through our curated selection of Indie Games. In her interview Michele says, “Video games culturally are often seen as not important, frivolous, and not contributing to deeper societal conversations. We wanted to push back against that, arguing that video games, and “indie” games in specific, with their focus on smaller teams and more personal points of view, connect deeply with contemporary cultural vectors and tap into what makes us human.” Learn more about MoPOP’s plans to expand the Indie Game Revolution exhibition and find out more about our new Gaming Series in the interview.
