"Evidence of Everything Exploding"
an interactive game creature/digital poem
by Jason Nelson

Nelson is a digital and hypermedia poet and artist. He is a lecturer on Cyberstudies, digital writing and creative practice at Griffith University in Queensland, Australia and he is best known for his artistic flash games/essays. Nelson’s style of web art mergers various genres and technologies, focusing on collages of poetry, image, sound, movement and interaction. Winner of several international prizes, Jason Nelson has won the the 2009 Webby for the Weird Category for his art portal secrettechnology.com.

Jason just launched a new interactive game called “Evidence of Everything Exploding” featuring “NASA, Bill Gates, The Spanish Flu, Dadaism, James Joyce, Fidel Castro and other strange and wonderous evidence”. The critical sense of humor, the thought provoking videos, that you get to see every time you reach a new level, and all the graphic detail put into this new art work challenge the very concept of playing a game: Nelson’s games are not about how hard it is to reach the next level but the information you get while doing it.
