DUSTGIFT (2021)

 

Dustgift is a text-based, interactive online game that combines historical research, magical realism and speculative fiction. Revolving around a journey to the disused Ray Cement Factory in Southern Tehran, its narrative and duration are determined by the player’s choices. Based on a wide variety of sources, the game brings to life environmental, labour and local perspectives in a personal and playful way. In doing so, it invites players to engage with overlooked histories and shape their own journeys through both space and time.

Dustgift was developed in the framework of ‘Hermap’, a collaboration between Bozar (Brussels) and the Goethe Foundation (Tehran). More about the project here.
