Source text - English 1 00:00:00,467 --> 00:00:02,498 When we think of games, there's all kinds of things. 2 00:00:02,498 --> 00:00:04,996 Maybe you're ticked off, or maybe you're looking forward 3 00:00:04,996 --> 00:00:06,728 to a new game. You've been up too late playing a game. 4 00:00:06,728 --> 00:00:08,896 All these things happen to me. 5 00:00:08,896 --> 00:00:10,659 But when we think about games, a lot of times we think 6 00:00:10,659 --> 00:00:12,922 about stuff like this: first-person shooters, or the big, 7 00:00:12,922 --> 00:00:15,037 what we would call AAA games, 8 00:00:15,037 --> 00:00:16,293 or maybe you're a Facebook game player. 9 00:00:16,293 --> 00:00:18,161 This is one my partner and I worked on. 10 00:00:18,161 --> 00:00:19,956 Maybe you play Facebook games, and that's what we're 11 00:00:19,956 --> 00:00:22,663 making right now. This is a lighter form of game. 12 00:00:22,663 --> 00:00:25,411 Maybe you think about the tragically boring board games 13 00:00:25,411 --> 00:00:28,632 that hold us hostage in Thanksgiving situations. 14 00:00:28,632 --> 00:00:30,736 This would be one of those tragically boring board games 15 00:00:30,736 --> 00:00:32,829 that you can figure out. 16 00:00:32,829 --> 00:00:34,842 Or maybe you're in your living room, you know, 17 00:00:34,842 --> 00:00:37,612 playing with the Wii with the kids, or something like that, 18 00:00:37,612 --> 00:00:39,515 and, you know, there's this whole range of games, 19 00:00:39,515 --> 00:00:41,004 and that's very much what I think about. 20 00:00:41,004 --> 00:00:42,774 I make my living from games. I've been lucky enough 21 00:00:42,774 --> 00:00:45,188 to do this since I was 15, which also qualifies 22 00:00:45,188 --> 00:00:47,950 as I've never really had a real job. 23 00:00:47,950 --> 00:00:50,471 But we think about games as fun, and that's completely 24 00:00:50,471 --> 00:00:53,215 reasonable, but let's just think about this. 25 00:00:53,215 --> 00:00:55,943 So this one here, this is the 1980 Olympics. 26 00:00:55,943 --> 00:00:57,542 Now I don't know where you guys were, but I was 27 00:00:57,542 --> 00:01:00,386 in my living room. It was practically a religious event. 28 00:01:00,386 --> 00:01:03,784 And this is when the Americans beat the Russians, 29 00:01:03,784 --> 00:01:05,894 and this was -- yes, it was technically a game. 30 00:01:05,894 --> 00:01:08,906 Hockey is a game. But really, was this a game? 31 00:01:08,906 --> 00:01:12,055 I mean, people cried. I've never seen my mother cry 32 00:01:12,055 --> 00:01:15,081 like that at the end of Monopoly. 33 00:01:15,081 --> 00:01:17,941 And so this was just an amazing experience. 34 00:01:17,941 --> 00:01:20,212 Or, you know, if anybody here is from Boston -- 35 00:01:20,212 --> 00:01:23,598 So when the Boston Red Sox won the World Series after, 36 00:01:23,598 --> 00:01:27,524 I believe, 351 years, 37 00:01:27,524 --> 00:01:29,898 when they won the World Series, it was amazing. 38 00:01:29,898 --> 00:01:31,651 I happened to be living in Springfield at the time, 39 00:01:31,651 --> 00:01:34,117 and the best part of it was -- is that -- 40 00:01:34,117 --> 00:01:37,042 you would close the women's door in the bathroom, 41 00:01:37,042 --> 00:01:39,474 and I remember seeing "Go Sox," and I thought, really? 42 00:01:39,474 --> 00:01:42,667 Or the houses, you'd come out, because every game, 43 00:01:42,667 --> 00:01:45,222 well, I think almost every game, went into overtime, right? 44 00:01:45,222 --> 00:01:47,584 So we'd be outside, and all the other lights are on 45 00:01:47,584 --> 00:01:51,395 on the whole block, and kids, like, the attendance was down 46 00:01:51,395 --> 00:01:53,402 in school, and kids weren't going to school. 47 00:01:53,402 --> 00:01:55,415 But it's okay, it's the Red Sox, right? 48 00:01:55,415 --> 00:01:57,903 I mean, there's education, and then there's the Red Sox, 49 00:01:57,903 --> 00:01:59,417 and we know where they're stacked. 50 00:01:59,417 --> 00:02:02,063 So this was an amazing experience, and again, yes, 51 00:02:02,063 --> 00:02:04,786 it was a game, but they didn't write newspaper articles, 52 00:02:04,786 --> 00:02:07,610 people didn't say -- you know, really, "I can die now 53 00:02:07,610 --> 00:02:10,788 because the Red Sox won." And many people did. 54 00:02:10,788 --> 00:02:14,169 So games, it means something more to us. 55 00:02:14,169 --> 00:02:15,540 It absolutely means something more. 56 00:02:15,540 --> 00:02:17,997 So now, just, this is an abrupt transition here. 57 00:02:17,997 --> 00:02:20,888 There was three years where I actually did have a real job, sort of. 58 00:02:20,888 --> 00:02:23,019 I was the head of a college department 59 00:02:23,019 --> 00:02:25,630 teaching games, so, again, it was sort of a real job, 60 00:02:25,630 --> 00:02:28,543 and now I just got to talk about making as opposed to making them. 61 00:02:28,543 --> 00:02:30,703 And I was at a dinner. Part of the job of it, when you're 62 00:02:30,703 --> 00:02:33,989 a chair of a department, is to eat, and I did that very well, 63 00:02:33,989 --> 00:02:37,598 and so I'm out at a dinner with this guy called Zig Jackson. 64 00:02:37,598 --> 00:02:40,255 So this is Zig in this photograph. This is also one of Zig's 65 00:02:40,255 --> 00:02:41,899 photographs. He's a photographer. 66 00:02:41,899 --> 00:02:44,924 And he goes all around the country taking pictures 67 00:02:44,924 --> 00:02:49,053 of himself, and you can see here he's got 68 00:02:49,053 --> 00:02:53,746 Zig's Indian Reservation. And this particular shot, this 69 00:02:53,746 --> 00:02:57,231 is one of the more traditional shots. This is a rain dancer. 70 00:02:57,231 --> 00:02:59,492 And this is one of my favorite shots here. 71 00:02:59,492 --> 00:03:01,605 So you can look at this, and maybe you've even seen 72 00:03:01,605 --> 00:03:04,680 things like this. This is an expression of culture, right? 73 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:07,153 And this is actually from his Degradation series. 74 00:03:07,153 --> 00:03:09,691 And what was most fascinating to me about this series 75 00:03:09,691 --> 00:03:11,193 is just, look at that little boy there. 76 00:03:11,193 --> 00:03:14,086 Can you imagine? Now let's, we can see that's a traditional 77 00:03:14,086 --> 00:03:16,786 Native American. Now I just want to change that guy's race. 78 00:03:16,786 --> 00:03:18,884 Just imagine if that's a black guy. 79 00:03:18,884 --> 00:03:21,291 So, "Honey, come here, let's get your picture with the black guy." 80 00:03:21,291 --> 00:03:23,588 Right? Like, seriously, nobody would do this. 81 00:03:23,588 --> 00:03:26,686 It baffles the mind. And so Zig, being Indian, 82 00:03:26,686 --> 00:03:29,133 likewise it baffles his mind. His favorite photograph -- 83 00:03:29,133 --> 00:03:31,717 my favorite photograph of his, which I don't have in here is 84 00:03:31,717 --> 00:03:34,432 Indian taking picture of white people taking pictures 85 00:03:34,432 --> 00:03:37,234 of Indians. (Laughter) 86 00:03:37,234 --> 00:03:39,154 So I happen to be at dinner with this photographer, 87 00:03:39,154 --> 00:03:41,015 and he was talking with another photographer 88 00:03:41,015 --> 00:03:43,067 about a shooting that had occurred, 89 00:03:43,067 --> 00:03:45,781 and it was on an Indian reservation. He'd taken his camera 90 00:03:45,781 --> 00:03:48,031 up there to photograph it, but when he got there, 91 00:03:48,031 --> 00:03:49,797 he discovered he couldn't do it. He just couldn't capture 92 00:03:49,797 --> 00:03:54,053 the picture. And so they were talking back and forth 93 00:03:54,053 --> 00:03:56,964 about this question. Do you take the picture or not? 94 00:03:56,964 --> 00:03:59,203 And that was fascinating to me as a game designer, 95 00:03:59,203 --> 00:04:00,781 because it never occurs to me, like, should I make 96 00:04:00,781 --> 00:04:03,726 the game about this difficult topic or not? 97 00:04:03,726 --> 00:04:05,852 Because we just make things that are fun or, you know, 98 00:04:05,852 --> 00:04:09,170 will make you feel fear, you know, that visceral excitement. 99 00:04:09,170 --> 00:04:11,455 But every other medium does it. 100 00:04:11,455 --> 00:04:14,256 So this is my kid. This is Maezza, and when she was 101 00:04:14,256 --> 00:04:16,446 seven years old, she came home from school one day, 102 00:04:16,446 --> 00:04:18,368 and like I do every single day, I asked her, 103 00:04:18,368 --> 00:04:19,448 "What'd you do today?" 104 00:04:19,448 --> 00:04:21,564 So she said, "We talked about the Middle Passage." 105 00:04:21,564 --> 00:04:25,000 Now, this was a big moment. Maezza's dad is black, 106 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:28,522 and I knew this day was coming. I wasn't expecting it 107 00:04:28,522 --> 00:04:30,603 at seven. I don't know why, but I wasn't. 108 00:04:30,603 --> 00:04:33,948 Anyways, so I asked her, "How do you feel about that?" 109 00:04:33,948 --> 00:04:36,509 So she proceeded to tell me, and so any of you 110 00:04:36,509 --> 00:04:39,254 who are parents will recognize the bingo buzzwords here. 111 00:04:39,254 --> 00:04:40,896 So the ships start in England, they come down 112 00:04:40,896 --> 00:04:43,182 from England, they go to Africa, they go across the ocean -- 113 00:04:43,182 --> 00:04:45,047 that's the Middle Passage part — they come to America 114 00:04:45,047 --> 00:04:47,344 where the slaves are sold, she's telling me. 115 00:04:47,344 --> 00:04:49,892 But Abraham Lincoln was elected president, and then he 116 00:04:49,892 --> 00:04:52,738 passed the Emancipation Proclamation, and now they're free. 117 00:04:52,738 --> 00:04:55,308 Pause for about 10 seconds. 118 00:04:55,308 --> 00:04:56,598 "Can I play a game, Mommy?" 119 00:04:56,598 --> 00:05:01,141 And I thought, that's it? And so, you know, 120 00:05:01,141 --> 00:05:04,139 this is the Middle Passage, this is an incredibly significant 121 00:05:04,139 --> 00:05:07,736 event, and she's treating it like, basically some 122 00:05:07,736 --> 00:05:09,440 black people went on a cruise, is more or less 123 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:11,966 how it sounds to her. (Laughter) 124 00:05:11,966 --> 00:05:15,227 And so, to me, I wanted more value in this, so when 125 00:05:15,227 --> 00:05:17,624 she asked if she could play a game, I said, 126 00:05:17,624 --> 00:05:19,490 "Yes." (Laughter) 127 00:05:19,490 --> 00:05:21,798 And so I happened to have all of these little pieces. 128 00:05:21,798 --> 00:05:24,464 I'm a game designer, so I have this stuff sitting around my house. 129 00:05:24,464 --> 00:05:26,289 So I said, "Yeah, you can play a game," and I give her 130 00:05:26,289 --> 00:05:27,828 a bunch of these, and I tell her to paint them 131 00:05:27,828 --> 00:05:29,486 in different families. These are pictures of Maezza 132 00:05:29,486 --> 00:05:32,189 when she was — God, it still chokes me up seeing these. 133 00:05:32,189 --> 00:05:34,513 So she's painting her little families. 134 00:05:34,513 --> 00:05:37,504 So then I grab a bunch of them and I put them on a boat. 135 00:05:37,504 --> 00:05:42,476 This was the boat. It was made quickly obviously. (Laughter) 136 00:05:42,476 --> 00:05:44,997 And so the basic gist of it is, I grabbed a bunch of families, 137 00:05:44,997 --> 00:05:47,033 and she's like, "Mommy, but you forgot the pink baby 138 00:05:47,033 --> 00:05:48,012 and you forgot the blue daddy 139 00:05:48,012 --> 00:05:49,376 and you forgot all these other things." 140 00:05:49,376 --> 00:05:51,289 And she says, "They want to go." And I said, 141 00:05:51,289 --> 00:05:53,075 "Honey, no they don't want to go. This is the Middle Passage. 142 00:05:53,075 --> 00:05:55,191 Nobody wants to go on the Middle Passage." 143 00:05:55,191 --> 00:05:57,659 So she gave me a look that only a daughter 144 00:05:57,659 --> 00:05:59,697 of a game designer would give a mother, 145 00:05:59,697 --> 00:06:02,373 and as we're going across the ocean, following these rules, 146 00:06:02,373 --> 00:06:05,561 she realizes that she's rolling pretty high, and she says 147 00:06:05,561 --> 00:06:08,193 to me, "We're not going to make it." 148 00:06:08,193 --> 00:06:10,788 And she realizes, you know, we don't have enough food, 149 00:06:10,788 --> 00:06:13,520 and so she asks what to do, and I say, 150 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:15,352 "Well, we can either" -- Remember, she's seven -- 151 00:06:15,352 --> 00:06:17,264 "We can either put some people in the water 152 00:06:17,264 --> 00:06:18,856 or we can hope that they don't get sick 153 00:06:18,856 --> 00:06:20,979 and we make it to the other side." 154 00:06:20,979 --> 00:06:23,602 And she -- just the look on her face came over 155 00:06:23,602 --> 00:06:25,976 and she said -- now mind you this is after a month of -- 156 00:06:25,976 --> 00:06:28,137 this is Black History Month, right? 157 00:06:28,137 --> 00:06:29,494 After a month she says to me, 158 00:06:29,494 --> 00:06:31,627 "Did this really happen?" 159 00:06:31,627 --> 00:06:34,501 And I said, "Yes." And so she said, "So, if I came 160 00:06:34,501 --> 00:06:36,406 out of the woods" — this is her brother and sister — "If I came 161 00:06:36,406 --> 00:06:39,398 out of the woods, Avalon and Donovan might be gone." "Yes." 162 00:06:39,398 --> 00:06:42,554 "But I'd get to see them in America." "No." 163 00:06:42,554 --> 00:06:45,378 "But what if I saw them? You know, couldn't we stay together?" "No." 164 00:06:45,378 --> 00:06:47,628 "So Daddy could be gone." "Yes." 165 00:06:47,628 --> 00:06:50,005 And she was fascinated by this, and she started to cry, 166 00:06:50,005 --> 00:06:52,466 and I started to cry, and her father started to cry, 167 00:06:52,466 --> 00:06:53,618 and now we're all crying. He didn't expect 168 00:06:53,618 --> 00:06:55,375 to come home from work to the Middle Passage, 169 00:06:55,375 --> 00:06:57,707 but there it goes.

Il avait pris son appareil photo 90 00:03:45,781 --> 00:03:48,031 pour la photographier, mais quand il est arrivé là-bas, 91 00:03:48,031 --> 00:03:49,797 il n'a pas pu la faire. Il n'a pas pu prendre la photo. 92 00:03:49,797 --> 00:03:54,053 Donc ils argumentaient tous les deux 93 00:03:54,053 --> 00:03:56,964 à propos de cette question : "Doit-on prendre la photo ou pas ?" 94 00:03:56,964 --> 00:03:59,203 Et ça m'a fascinée en tant que développeuse de jeux, 95 00:03:59,203 --> 00:04:00,781 car je n'avais jamais réfléchi à, par exemple, 96 00:04:00,781 --> 00:04:03,726 devrais-je faire le jeu à propos de ce sujet difficile ou pas ? 97 00:04:03,726 --> 00:04:05,852 Parce qu'on fait juste des choses pour s'amuser, 98 00:04:05,852 --> 00:04:09,170 ou on vous faire ressentir de la peur, cette excitation viscérale. 99 00:04:09,170 --> 00:04:11,455 Mais tous les autres moyens de communication le font. 100 00:04:11,455 --> 00:04:14,256 Voici ma fille Maeza.

C'est le Passage du Milieu. 142 00:05:53,075 --> 00:05:55,191 "Personne ne veut aller par le Passage du Milieu." 143 00:05:55,191 --> 00:05:57,659 Donc elle m'a lancé un regard que seule une fille 144 00:05:57,659 --> 00:05:59,697 de développeuse de jeux peut lancer à sa mère, 145 00:05:59,697 --> 00:06:02,373 et pendant qu'on traverse l'océan, en suivant ces règles, 146 00:06:02,373 --> 00:06:05,561 elle réalise que les vagues sont très hautes et elle me dit : 147 00:06:05,561 --> 00:06:08,193 "On va pas y arriver." 148 00:06:08,193 --> 00:06:10,788 Et elle réalise aussi qu'on a pas assez de nourriture, 149 00:06:10,788 --> 00:06:13,520 et elle me demande quoi faire, et je réponds : 150 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:15,352 "On peut soit.. Rappelez-vous qu'elle a sept ans... 151 00:06:15,352 --> 00:06:17,264 "On peut mettre des gens dans l'eau 152 00:06:17,264 --> 00:06:18,856 ou espérer que personne ne tombe malade 153 00:06:18,856 --> 00:06:20,979 et qu'on arrive de l'autre côté." 154 00:06:20,979 --> 00:06:23,602 Et elle... le regard qu'elle avait quand elle est venue 155 00:06:23,602 --> 00:06:25,976 et elle a dit... c'était après un mois 156 00:06:25,976 --> 00:06:28,137 avoir étudié l'histoire des noirs à l'école. 157 00:06:28,137 --> 00:06:29,494 Après un mois, elle me dit : 158 00:06:29,494 --> 00:06:31,627 "Est-ce que ça s'est vraiment passé ?" 159 00:06:31,627 --> 00:06:34,501 Et je réponds : "Oui." Et elle dit : " Donc si 160 00:06:34,501 --> 00:06:36,406 Donc si j'étais sortie des bois... voici son frère et sa sœur... 161 00:06:36,406 --> 00:06:39,398 "Si j'étais sortie, Avalon et Donovan, auraient pu, eux, être partis." "Oui." 162 00:06:39,398 --> 00:06:42,554 "Mais je pourrais les revoir en Amérique." "Non." 163 00:06:42,554 --> 00:06:45,378 "Mais si je les revoyais, on pourrait rester ensemble ?" "Non." 164 00:06:45,378 --> 00:06:47,628 "Donc papa pourrait être parti." "Oui." 165 00:06:47,628 --> 00:06:50,005 Elle est restée fascinée puis s'est mise à pleurer, 166 00:06:50,005 --> 00:06:52,466 et je me suis mise à pleurer, et son père pleurait aussi, 167 00:06:52,466 --> 00:06:53,618 et on pleurait tous. Il ne s'attendait pas vraiment 168 00:06:53,618 --> 00:06:55,375 à rentrer chez lui en plein Passage du Milieu, 169 00:06:55,375 --> 00:06:57,707 mais bon c'est arrivé. (Rires) 170 00:06:57,707 --> 00:07:00,589 Et donc, on a fait ce jeu, et elle a compris. 171 00:07:00,589 --> 00:07:03,369 Elle a compris car elle a passé du temps avec ces gens. 172 00:07:03,369 --> 00:07:06,638 Ce n'était pas un truc abstrait dans une brochure ou dans un film. 173 00:07:06,638 --> 00:07:09,730 Et donc ça a été une expérience très forte. 174 00:07:09,730 --> 00:07:11,713 Voici le jeu que j'ai fini par appeler 175 00:07:11,713 --> 00:07:13,668 "le Nouveau Monde", parce que ça sonnait bien. 176 00:07:13,668 --> 00:07:16,484 Je crois pas que ce nouveau monde ait semblé vraiment excitant 177 00:07:16,484 --> 00:07:18,984 aux gens qui y ont été amenés comme esclaves. 178 00:07:18,984 --> 00:07:21,396 Mais quand c'est arrivé, j'ai vu la terre entière. 179 00:07:21,396 --> 00:07:23,247 J'étais si excitée. Je développe des jeux 180 00:07:23,247 --> 00:07:26,846 depuis 20 ans et là je décidais de m'y remettre. 181 00:07:26,846 --> 00:07:28,044 Ma famille est irlandaise. 182 00:07:28,044 --> 00:07:30,941 Voici un jeu appelé "Síochán Leat." " Que la paix soit avec vous." 183 00:07:30,941 --> 00:07:33,433 C'est toute l'histoire de ma famille en un seul jeu. 184 00:07:33,433 --> 00:07:35,138 J'en ai fait un autre appelé "Train". 185 00:07:35,138 --> 00:07:37,646 J'ai fait une série de six jeux 186 00:07:37,646 --> 00:07:39,959 parlant de sujets difficiles, et tant qu'à faire ça, 187 00:07:39,959 --> 00:07:41,984 en voici un dont on doit parler, 188 00:07:41,984 --> 00:07:45,049 je vous laisse deviner de quoi il s'agit tout seuls. 189 00:07:45,049 --> 00:07:48,962 J'ai aussi fait un jeu sur la Piste des Larmes. 190 00:07:48,962 --> 00:07:51,440 En voici un avec 50 000 pièces individuelles. 191 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:53,235 J'étais folle de commencer ça, 192 00:07:53,235 --> 00:07:55,111 mais j'en suis au milieu maintenant. 193 00:07:55,111 --> 00:07:56,099 C'est la même chose. 194 00:07:56,099 --> 00:07:58,604 J'espère enseigner l’histoire à travers ces jeux. 195 00:07:58,604 --> 00:08:00,583 Et voici celui sur lequel je travaille en ce moment, qui est... 196 00:08:00,583 --> 00:08:03,444 je suis en plein dedans et je sais pas pourquoi mais ça m'émeut beaucoup... 197 00:08:03,444 --> 00:08:05,619 c'est un jeu appelé "les employés de cuisine mexicains." 198 00:08:05,619 --> 00:08:08,333 Au début, c'était plus ou moins un problème de maths. 199 00:08:08,333 --> 00:08:10,972 Comme si on montrait les chiffres de l'immigration illégale. 200 00:08:10,972 --> 00:08:13,155 Mais plus j'en apprenais sur la culture mexicaine... 201 00:08:13,155 --> 00:08:15,246 mon associé est Mexicain. plus je découvrais 202 00:08:15,246 --> 00:08:18,140 que pour nous tous la nourriture est un besoin essentiel 203 00:08:18,140 --> 00:08:21,616 tout comme pour les Mexicains, mais c'est aussi beaucoup plus que cela. 204 00:08:21,616 --> 00:08:24,441 C'est un moyen d'exprimer l'amour. C'est un moyen d'exprimer... 205 00:08:24,441 --> 00:08:27,491 Mon Dieu, je suis beaucoup plus émue que ce que je pensais. 206 00:08:27,491 --> 00:08:29,198 Je vais arrêter de regarder cette photo. 207 00:08:29,198 --> 00:08:32,553 C'est le moyen d'exprimer la beauté.
