“I Dream. Sometimes I think that’s the only right thing to do” – Haruki Murakami

We’re pleased to present our third installment of Salon Ludique, featuring an all-Montreal selection of artists. Salon Ludique 3: Dreams takes us on a journey through the sublime, the psychedelic, the languid, the absurd and the fantastic.

We invite you to come, play, and wander through a selection of digital dreamscapes, experience the sensations of alternative interfaces, and engage in critical conversations with creators and attendees about the works.

About Salon Ludique:

Le Salon Ludique is a not-for profit event series, designed to initiate and sustain a critical dialogue centered on experimental practices across artistic disciplines. Running bi-monthly, Salon Ludique will feature works by both emerging and established creative practitioners in a intimate, salon style format. Each artist will showcase their work, and give a 10 to 15 minute talk about their practice. In order to facilitate interdisciplinary dialogue, Salon Ludique will showcase works in digital games, new media art, electronic art, performance, and more. Each articulation of the event will feature new configurations of art, games and performance, curated through thematic and discursive connections between the works.

All proceeds from admission are split equally among the participating artists. For more info: http://www.salonludique.org/about-a-propo/

***Salon Ludique is supported by the Technoculture, Art and Games Research Centre, The Hexagram Centre for Research Creation in Media Arts and Technologies, and Grand (Graphics, Animation and New Media).
