Discovering Galician videogames. With MUVI

We cannot talk about Galician audiovisual without mentioning the world of video games, and MUVI is the first museum opened in Spain dedicated to its history. The Galician Video Game Museum Foundation arose from the need to claim video games as a form of culture and art, linked to the virtues of the playful side of the human being. MUVI is the result of a claim process and a concrete vision on the potential of this medium, transversal, rigorous and integrative.

Panel

In this Interplay, Lucas Costas, one of its members, will vindicate the video game as a means of communication, expression and creation, as well as an educational tool in the broadest sense of the word, in a panel in which he will also review its history in our community, focusing on The Wall, the first commercial video game in Galicia.
