Apologies for x-postings.

A new game video collection at the Internet Archive - games for art's sake.

We are pleased to announce a new game video collection hosted by the
Internet Archive, called "games for art's sake" -
http://www.archive.org/details/game-art.  This is devoted to providing
online documentation of both individual works and exhibitions of game
art, art games and related work made "for art's sake".

Games constitute a large and important field of contemporary art.  How
this art will withstand the passage of time remains an open question.
This collection is intended to provide a stable and enduring site for
the hosting of documentation about games made for art's sake.

Artists, curators and others with relevant documentation of game art
are encouraged to contribute their files to the collection.  To do
this, first upload them to the Internet Archive's open source video
collection, using the tool at http://www.archive.org/create/.  Then
email us at <gamesforartssake at gmail.com> and we will moved them into
the "games for art's sake" collection.  This will be viewable at
http://www.archive.org/details/game-art
