Launch project

FILMTEXT 2.0 is an experimental digital narrative that blends the conventions of videogames with media theory. The protagonist of FILMTEXT 2.0, known as the digital thoughtographer, navigates through landscapes of digital information. Players may assume this role or tag along as 'metatourist.' The intense soundtrack was created by Amerika with the sound artist Twine, and is finely tuned to the interactions of the user. America also collaborated with Flash developer John Vega.
