Was steht bei der Entwicklung eines Spiels am Anfang des Prozesses - die Technologie oder die Idee? Wie verändert die Technologie die Ideen und beeinflussen umgekehrt die Ideen auch die Technologien?

Über diese und andere Fragen diskutieren Christian Knapp und Sophia Reiterer in dieser Folge von The Art Wire.
