Playable Art
Jesús Ibáñez · 2015
This paper contributes an approach to create playable art consisting of physical art with a playable digital counterpart. We propose the use of Inventame, an App that allows the user to focus on the creative and artistic part. He crafts his own game in the real world with his preferred physical materials (pencils, markers, coloured wooden blocks, etc.). Then, he takes a picture of his creation, configures a few options in the App, and the picture becomes playable. This paper also describes four examples that illustrate the creation of playable art from several different kinds of art, using different materials and with different functions and playability.
