Blast Theory are presenting Can You See Me Now? as part of the Arte.Mov festival in Belo Horizonte along with TRUCOLD & Other Works in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
Can You See Me Now? is a chase game played online and on the streets. Players are dropped at random locations into a virtual map of Belo Horizonte. Tracked by satellites, Blast Theory's runners appear online next to your player. The runners use handheld computers showing the positions of online players to guide them in the chase. Can You See Me Now? won the Golden Nica for Interactive Art at Prix Ars Electronica and was nominated for a BAFTA Award.
Belo Horizonte Performance Dates: November 20th and 21st 4pm - 7pm (BRST) and 22nd 11am - 2pm (BRST)
Artist Talk: Blast Theory artist Ju Row Farr will give an artist talk on November 23rd, 4pm at Palácio das Artes.
