Polygamer #88: The Art of Craft at PAX East 2019

Posted on April 10, 2019 by Ken Gagne

The tenth annual PAX East was held last month, and I was honored to host two panels of brilliant speakers. One, “The Return of Couch Play”, can be seen and heard on the IndieSider podcast. The other was “The Art of Craft: Inspiring Game Creations”, featured on this week’s Polygamer podcast.

Video games are art — and art imitates video games. The characters, colors, and aesthetics of our favorite digital worlds have spawned an industry of apparel and crafts that keep us warm and add a flair of the fantastic to ourselves and our homes. We’ll hear from amateur, hobbyist, and professional artists and creators about the inspirations and tools they use to create, enjoy, and sell their custom clothes, jewelry, furniture, paintings, and more.

Featuring:

  • Ken Gagne [Digital Content Developer, Gamebits]
  • Johanna Shaw [Jill-of-All-Crafts, Shaw Asylum]
  • Chris Gonzalez [Owner & Designer, Dapper Pixel]
  • Adri [Storyteller, genericgeekgirl]
  • Roberto Hoyos [Co-host, That Thing You Made]

Full disclosure: I backed Roberto Hoyos’ “Iconic Pillow Collection” Kickstarter.
