Marc Atallah, Director of the Maison d'Ailleurs, will discuss the anthropological role of games through the lens of contemporary theories. He will also tackle the misunderstandings that have been casting a shadow on games since Antiquity. The conference will be followed by a public game of legendary arcade game SUPER SMASH BROS ULTIMATE. A unique, playful conference.
